TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – CCTV footage of an Indonesian domestic caregiver abusing an old disabled man has sparked discussions on the issue of long-term health care in Taiwan.
The caregiver has been blacklisted and already left the country.
The video was first posted on YouTube in late June of 2018, but it only surfaced in Taiwan’s news media after a family member of the victim recently posted it to the Breaking News Commune FB page.
The uploader of the video said the family employed the young Indonesian caregiver to take care of their wheelchair-bound 80-year-old grandfather, but a hidden camera installed by the family found that the caregiver abused their grandfather on multiple occasions when the two were left home alone.
