This is the second time a Birch Tree Manor staff member has been arrested for abusing a vulnerable patient. In 2021, former caregiver Valentina Baghiu was sentenced to suspension at the Wirral Magistrates’ Court for mockery and mockery of a helpless elderly woman with dementia between May and November 2019.
Bond Care, which manages the home, told ECHO Birch Tree Manor the new administration took over in October 2019 and new measures have been taken to protect residents.
In the most recent incident, a home health care assistant (HCA), referred to as Colleague B, saw Monalisa Maria unleash a shocking attack on the man. In a witness statement, he said: “I saw Lohan slapping resident A on the side of his head on several occasions.

“She hit him with one hand and then used her other hand and did so at least three times as Resident A repeatedly shouted ‘go, shut up’ and was very angry. I did not see Resident A hit Lohan.”
Another HCA, colleague C, also saw the attacks and added: “In utter shock, Ms Maria approached [Resident A] from behind and while she was standing behind [Resident A] hit him on some sides of his head. I could not believe what I had seen, I felt utterly disgusted and words could not describe how sad I felt about [Resident A]. [Resident A] he swayed when Maria slapped him and I scared him [Resident A] It may fall”.
The couple also saw Monalisa Maria hitting the man three times in the back. Colleague C said: “I vividly remember that I thought he had used some force to punch him.”
Finally, the women remembered the nurse kicking resident A in the buttocks to force him into his room. The HCA reported Monalisa Maria that night and it was suspended immediately. According to a written decision from the NMC: “A police investigation is currently underway into allegations of abuse. However, police have confirmed that they were unable to contact Ms Monalisa Maria as she left the country.”

A Merseyside police spokeswoman confirmed that a suspect had been “identified” following allegations of assault and had been “wanted” but that no arrests had been made. An independent disciplinary committee convened by the NMC has found three charges against Monalisa Maria, including slapping, punching and kicking.
However, the committee demanded that she leave resident A with dirty clothes and also that she work from home without occupational insurance. The panel found that just one incredible mandate would suffice.
He wrote: “The committee found that the abuse of any patient was inherently serious and found that the misbehavior in this case reflected harmful deep-rooted personality and behavioral problems. It also found no evidence of insight or remorse and consequent risk of recurrence.
“The conduct, as evidenced by the facts found, was a significant deviation from the standards expected of a registered nurse. The committee decided that there was no evidence that Ms Monalisa Maria would use a period of suspension to deal with specific concerns were raised about her conduct on this issue. “
A Bond Care spokesman said: “We are saddened and disappointed that these incidents have occurred in our home. Since October 2019 we have had a change in home management and installed monitoring devices to further protect the well-being of our residents and staff.
“The health and well-being of our residents is our number one priority and this episode does not reflect the excellent and dedicated staff and our home.”
