A Winnipeg nurse who falsified vaccination records for herself and two others has been fined and disciplined by the College of Registered Nurses of Manitoba after pleading guilty to professional misconduct.
Charmaine Delaronde was a public health nurse with the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority and the lead public health nurse at the Ma Mawi Indigenous COVID-19 vaccination centre at the time. She was fined $7,000, ordered to pay $3,500 in costs to the college, reprimanded and ordered to take courses in medical ethics and professionalism within four months of Aug. 28.
The college said the nurse changed the records to make it appear the three had been vaccinated when they had not.
Delaronde worked for the WRHA from December 2005 to January 2023 and was assigned to the vaccination centre from April 2021 to April 2022.
