Re: harassmet

Chances are that the hospital has a policy against harassment, and a proceedure to follow to report it to your supervisors. They are required by law to do an investigation, and to take your complaint seriously.

You cannot really take legal action until you have followed the proceedure. Once you have done that, and they have not taken action, you could leave your employment and file suit.
