Ammon News - A woman was arrested after allegedly using at least 20 aliases to pose as a registered nurse (RN), licensed practical nurse (LPN) and registered nurse supervisor to care for patients at rehabilitation and nursing homes across Pennsylvania, state police said.
Shannon Nicole Womack, 39, was charged with 43 counts, including endangering the welfare of a care-dependent person, identity theft, forgery, procurement fraud, use and possession of drug paraphernalia and falsely pretending to hold a license, according to Pennsylvania state court records reviewed by USA TODAY.
According to Pennsylvania State Police, Womack allegedly secured nursing positions through staffing agencies by "submitting fraudulently signed documents and also by creating a false LLC to deploy herself to jobs." Reports indicate she worked at each of these nursing jobs for "only a short time," police added. USA today
