Charmaine Delaronde was fined $ 7,000, ordered to pay $ 3,500 as college expenses, launched a reprimand and ordered to take medical ethics and professionalism courses.
Delaronde worked in WRHA from December 2005 to January 2023 and was appointed to the vaccination center from April 2021 to April 2022.
After in December 2022 he was resigned in the change of vaccination records, he resigned in December 2022, which entered into force the next month. Wrha released an 18-day unpaid suspension for days before the end of her work.
The college said that Delaonder is currently practicing a nurse in Manitoba.
She could not be achieved for comments.
“It always disappoints to hear about such situations, and I understand why the manithobans are concerned when they read these headlines,” said Asagvara, Minister of Health of the Asagvara. “But I want to be clear, these cases are rare and are not represented by thousands of nurses throughout the province that provide safe, professional and compassionate care every day.”
Asagvara said that such regulators as the nursing college are responsible for investigating complaints, considering evidence and disposal of disciplinary measures.
“The public should have confidence that the system is working,” Asagvara said. “The very fact that we hear about this is evidence that the regulation process is functioning and that when problems are revealed, they act so that the manitobas receive the safe, reliable help that they deserve.”
Darlene Jackson, president of the Union of Medical Manitoba, was inaccessible to comments on Friday.
In his 16-page decision, the college said that Delaondonda was responsible for supervision of the vaccination clinic and its personnel and the provision of proper data to the province database.
The college said that, although Delaondonda also introduced vaccinations for some patients in the clinic, she was not obliged to receive the Covid-19 blow.
Only when the COVID-19 Province Assembly team conducted a regular audit of the province databases, hoping that the employees gained access to their own personal health files, they found that Delarone gained access to its own file, and there was an empty form that it entered, which was supposed to include a controlled vaccine, lot number, dose and immunalizer.
When she gave an interview to her employer on October 4, 2022, she admitted that she entered her files, as well as two other people who were known to her to enter information about vaccination.
But two months later, Delaondr called her employer to admit that she had previously lied, and that not one of the three was vaccinated. In addition, she admitted that “she deliberately changed the documentation to say that all three of them were vaccinated when they were not.”
During the consideration of the committee at the beginning of this year, the committee’s lawyers argued that three aggravating circumstances against Delaondr were “dishonesty, subjecting public risk security and abuse of powers participating in access and revising the vaccination records.”
The Committee also heard that in her favor Delaondond admitted what she did, she was an experienced RN, she worked with an insufficiently served population, had already received an 18-day suspension and collaborated with the college.
The lawyer of Delarondrus also said that the pandemic “was a stress time for (Delaronda) and their family, and there were (unspecified) personal problems of the family and health that would explain their poor judgment.” Delaronda also did not have previous complaints against her.
