KITCHENER -- Provincial police have charged a personal support worker who allegedly took intimate images of a vulnerable resident at a long-term care home in Guelph/Eramosa Township.

Officials said the investigation began on Sept. 7 following reports of inappropriate behaviour at the home.

A 22-year-old Cambridge woman has been charged with voyeurism and distributing voyeurism material. She is scheduled to appear in court on Oct. 29.

Police said the Ministry of Long-Term Care has been notified about the incident and the accused is no longer an employee at the home.

Officials added the home is taking precautions and making arrangements with families of loved ones in their care to ensure their safety.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police or Crime Stoppers.
