Jaimon Myers of Stratford was suspended without pay after being charged last month. He had been employed at the hospital in Camden County since 2007 and worked as a patient assistant, helping them in everyday tasks such as eating and bathing.
State police say the 21-year-old Myers had sex with the 19-year-old man in the patient's room at the Winslow facility. He was charged with aggravated sexual assault and has since posted $10,000 bail.
Ancora is the state's largest psychiatric hospital, housing about 600 patients.
