Nursing home employees smears fecal matter on resident

This article is shocking and disgusting.  This woman should go to jail for a very long time!

A 79-year-old woman who has lost the use of her arms, legs and speech was humiliated in May when her caregiver at Homeland nursing home in Harrisburg smeared fecal matter over the woman's face during a shower, city police reported.

Roseanne Anderson, 50, of the 2400 block of Market Street, Harrisburg, was arraigned Tuesday night before District Judge William Wenner on charges of simple assault and recklessly endangering another person. She was committed to Dauphin County Prison in lieu of $50,000 bail.
Police said the incident happened May 9 at the nursing home in the 1900 block of North Fifth Street.
Where was the woman's supervisor?  Did she do this before?  How did the police find out?
