The College of Nurses of Ontario brought allegations of professional misconduct against the member for working as a registered nurse while suspended, falsifying prescriptions, misappropriating funds, and asking a co-worker for a urine sample.
The member did not attend the hearing.
The Discipline Committee found the allegations proven, noting the member's guilty pleas to related criminal charges.
The Committee revoked the member's certificate of registration, emphasizing the need for specific and general deterrence given the serious, deceitful, and criminal nature of the conduct.
