BRIDGEVILLE, Pa. —(WPXI)- Five nurses were sexually assaulted by the same patient at a local rehabilitation facility, police say. According to investigators, the assaults happened over a span of five months at the Genesis Rehab and Care Center in Bridgeville. Police have charged Curtis Fordham with sexual assault, exposing himself, and harassment. The incidents allegedly happened between November of last year and this past March. It came to a head when one of the nursing assistants called 911 in the middle of the night after she said Fordham touched her body inappropriately multiple times. According to police, victims told investigators that Fordham would ask staff to “put lotion on him” or “scratch his back” — then sometimes touch them, expose himself to them or make sexual comments. Investigators say it’s unclear if there are additional victims. When police questioned Fordham, they say he said “didn’t touch anybody” and “doesn’t remember any of it.” An attempt to get a comment from Genesis has not been successful.
