Nurse took patient’s blood pressure, then ‘demanded sex from him to improve his health’

Canadian nurse Lori Chern is under investigation for allegedly offering sex to a male patient during a medical assessment, prompting British Columbia’s nursing regulator to restrict her practice while the unproven allegations are investigated.

A Canadian nurse, Lori Chern, is under investigation for allegedly offering sex to a male patient during a medical assessment, claiming it would benefit his health.

According to The Sun, the alleged incident occurred at Chern’s home in British Columbia in August.

The patient claimed Chern caressed his arm while checking his blood pressure and complimented his physical condition.

She allegedly told him that “sex was very important for a man to regulate himself and be in good health” before offering to have sex with him.

Despite his refusal, Chern allegedly suggested he could contact her privately.

The patient subsequently filed a complaint with the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives, submitting screenshots of purported text exchanges.

The regulator imposed temporary restrictions on Chern’s private practice while investigating the allegations.

Chern denies sexual misconduct, and the claims remain unproven. She can continue working at two designated hospitals.
