The incident took place in May of this year, according to court documents.
Jomil Uy Tugado, 39, of Durham, was already facing charges including sexual battery, sexual acts by a government or private institution employee, and sexual contact or penetration under the guise of medical treatment, according to documents obtained by ABC11.
University police allege he assaulted two female patients while they were incapacitated, with one incident occurring in May and the other earlier this month.
Tugado's nursing license was suspended last week, according to state records. As of last week, ABC11 learned he was placed on administrative leave at the hospital on Dec. 7.
Duke Health officials sent ABC11 the following statement on the newest allegations:
"We are aware of additional charges and are fully cooperating with law enforcement authorities in their ongoing investigation. We remain committed to supporting those who have been impacted."
