I am not joking. I work in a hospital and the priest came in to see a lady who's husband had left to get something to eat and we were changing her gown and linens and the priest was standing behind me staring at her naked body. This same priest came in last nite and asked me if a pain pill was ready for a pt yet, not once but 2 times in 10 minutes. I had to wait for the pharmacy to take the order and check it then send me the drug. The priest was standing in the hall being an annoyance. We are a very busy surgical floor and he is there for spiritual guiadance not demanding pain pills. A year ago, this same priest was in the bathroom with a female naked and she was calling him "honey". He had no business in her bathroom. I think he is in appropriate. \
He always visits the younger ladies. These were all under 50 yrs old and he comes in and starts acting like he is some kind of authority. As for the lady and the pain pill last PM. The physician changed her mind.

Don't you have curtains to pull when you are changing a patient? Tell him "excuse me, you will have to step out". If he doesn't do it, go to your supervisor. Is she aware of what this priest is doing? Talk to her about it. And if nothing is done, you should speak to the hospital administrator. Document the occasions, so you can state what the specific instances are.
He has no business doing the things he's doing.

First, it is excellent that there are such a large amount of exceptional individuals so inclined to deliver to the fewer lucky. However, it's not the fine procedure for serving to others. Recipients of such generosity will have to have the capability to stay as nameless as feasible (it is a very touchy field for plenty of). Anonymity could now not be completed if every body sees who will get the blanket that X knits. It could be feasible if every body donated coins that's then dispensed through the director to households who pick to use for such support--and the director has to have the discretion to maintain her mouth close. If it comes up once more I consider you will have to carry up the ones disorders. Our son entered the general public tuition method this yr. We received a letter a couple of weeks in the past that there is a software wherein youngsters who want wintry weather garments and coats get to move on a bus someday do a distribution middle and pick models. Participation is fully voluntary and approximately part the letter used to be a disclosure that the whole thing is stored nameless and that it's understood that there are a style of causes that individuals might discover themselves within the function to want such aid and that they don't ask for any documentation of want however ask that if there may be any manner individuals can have the funds for the models on their possess they will have to now not observe to permit room for individuals who are real needy.

Treat him the same way you would any family member of the patients. If you need privacy with a patient to change a dressed or anything, then tell him to leave. Don't do anything until he leaves.
I'm pretty sure that you have authority over the priest. I would also mention it to your boss as well as his.

First you tell the priest to get the hell out of the room, and complain to your nursing supervisor on the floor, then if things don't change, the hospital administrator. It is your job as hospital staff to ensure the privacy and respect of ALL your patients.

Tell your supervisor and ask to speak to the Human Resources Director. Put everything in writing. Keep notes to back up your accusations. His visits are for spiritual purposes not opportunities for lust. Ask him to leave when he should not be there, treat him like anyone else. He may imply a connection to a higher power but he is still a man.

You should speak to two people. The first is your hospital administrator, who can either tell him to smarten up and stay within his own provenance, or be barred from the hospital.
The second is the diocese office. They should know what kind of impression one of their own is making, and the disservice he is doing the church.

Speak to the bishop of the diocese, but don't count on him doing anything about it. The Catholic Church pecking order is quite good at looking after their own.

Call the local diocese and talk to the Bishops office.
If a crime has been commited, call the police.
With love in Christ.

If indeed this is really happening, Ask him who his superior is. This is probably the Bishop of the diocese or the superior of his order.
