   Barbara Kowalska 'cared' for Albert Ingall, who had no control over bowel   
   She wiped excrement on his face at Donnington Nursing Home, Newbury   
   When questioned, told boss: 'I'm sorry, I have no compassion for that man'   
   Nursing and Midwifery Council said Kowalska's behavior was 'deplorable'    
   An angry nurse who wiped faeces under the nose of a 97-year-old dementia   
   patient after he soiled himself at a Bupa-run home has been struck off.   
      
   Barbara Kowalska, 35, told frail Albert Inggall: 'If you do this again you   
   will be eating s*** cake' while smearing the excrement in his face.   
      
   Kowalska called Mr Inggall a 'filthy, dirty man' as he lay helpless in dirty   
   sheets at the 34 bedded Donnington Nursing and Residential Home, Newbury,   
   Berkshire.

   Barbara Kowalska, a nurse at the BUPA-run Donnington Care Home, near Newbury,   
   is accused of smearing human excrement on an elderly patient's nose   
   The resident was very elderly and vulnerable and he had poor cognitive   
   function, did not have full mental capacity and was incontinent, the Nursing   
   and Midwifery Council was told.   
      
   At the time Mr Inggall was infected with MRSA, which made his face very   
   painful and he specifically hated his nasal area being touched, the hearing   
   was told.   
      
   When questioned by her manager at the home Kowalska said: 'I'm sorry I have no   
   compassion for that man, I don't care if you report me.'   
      
   Describing the incident on August 25, 2012, Louise Hartley, for the NMC, said:   
   'A care assistant found the resident had soiled himself and went to Kowalska   
   for help to clean him up.

   'She was not happy about this and appeared to be angry with him.   
      
   'She spoke in a very nasty manner to the elderly resident.'   
      
   Ms Hartley told the hearing that the care assistant was extremely worried by   
   Kowalska's behaviour but felt intimidated by her.   
      
   'The care assistant was distressed by this but was also scared of what Ms   
   Kowalska's reaction would be when confronted,' she said.   
      
   'The care assistant then noticed that Ms Kowalska had faeces on her glove.   
      
   The act of wiping faeces on a seriously ill patient's face would be considered   
   deplorable by fellow practitioners    
    NMC panel chair Anne Asher   
      
   'She raised her hand and wiped it on his nose.'   
      
   Ms Hartley emphasised the physical and emotional harm Kowalska's actions had   
   on Mr Inggall.   
      
   'He was extremely vulnerable in terms of health and cognitive function,' said   
   Ms Hartley.   
      
   'Her (Kowalska) actions undermined the dignity of the resident.'   
      
   Two separate care assistants described Kowalska 'ranting' at Mr Inggall and   
   said she was very angry as she felt he had soiled himself deliberately.   
      
   One of the care assistants told the hearing: 'She smeared poo under his nose   
   and said if you do this again you will be eating s*** cake.'   
      
   'She knew he hated having his nose touched.'   
      
   During a police interview Kowalska admitted that she waved Mr Inggall's soiled   
   incontinence pad 'more than a few inches' from his face and repeatedly asked   
   'what's this?'   
      
   When asked if she touched his face she said: 'If I did I am not realising   
   about it but I now remember that he was cleaning his face.'   
      
   She also admitted that at times she could be 'stern'.   
      
   Kowalska was previously charged with neglect of a person with mental   
   incapacity but cleared by a jury at Reading Crown Court (pictured) in July

   NMC panel chair Anne Asher said: 'The act of wiping faeces on a seriously ill   
   patient's face would be considered deplorable by fellow practitioners.'   
      
   'Her explanation centred around how stressed she was at the time and how her   
   accent was often misinterpreted as harsh.'   
      
   'The patient was elderly and vulnerable with a serious medical condition.   
      
   Mrs Kowalska's actions were cruel    
    NMC panel chair Anne Asher   
      
   Ms Kowalska showed him complete disrespect and undermined his dignity.   
      
   'It is the panel's conclusion that she has deep-seated attitudinal issues and   
   had not demonstrated any remorse for her actions.'   
      
   'Mrs Kowalska's actions were cruel.   
      
   'She showed a lack of compassion and respect for the patient.'   
      
   Kowalska was previously charged with neglect of a person with mental   
   incapacity but cleared by a jury at Reading Crown Court in July 2014.   
      
   The NMC found it proved that she wiped faeces on the patient's face, called   
   him a 'filthy, dirty man' and told him 'if you do this again you will be   
   eating shit cake.'   
      
   Kowalska did not attend the hearing and was struck off in her absence.
