Whistleblower nurse told she would lose home
The whistleblower, who worked with the doctor at Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, was first made aware of allegations about him in 1994 when she was approached by a male patient who confided in her about events he said happened some years previously.
As the man had made a complaint to the gardaí, the nurse, who has not been identified, presumed the hospital would be notified but after several months, when it was clear there had been no communication, she decided she would have to report the matter.
