Susan Julifs, former administrator at the Pomeroy Care Center in Pomeroy, Iowa, faces a charge of professional incompetence from the Iowa Board of Nursing Home Administrators.
The board says that Julifs should have known resident William Cubbage posed a threat to other residents and that she failed to protect those residents from the threat.
Before being a resident at Pomreoy, Cubbage was in the Iowa Civil Commitment Unit for Sex Offenders from 2002-2010. Cubbage was convicted of four separate cases alleging lascivious acts with a child, indecent contact with a child, and assault with intent to commit sexual abuse.
An 8-year-old who was visiting the home witnessed Cubbage fondling an elderly woman in her bed. According to the 8-year-old, the victim was repeatedly yelling, No!
Cubbage admitted to assaulting the woman and was recommitted to the sex-offender unit.
Julifs is currently the administrator at Lakeside Lutheran Home in Emmetsburg, IA.
The board is scheduled to review the matter on October 24th.
