Nurse suspended over insulin theft
The drug were taken 'on impulse' for her father, so that he could use them in China
A nurse who stole insulin from an aged care facility for use by her father has been suspended for six months.
The theft was uncovered only after luggage went missing in transit, ending up at Sydney airport, where police investigated and traced the source of the insulin.
Lin Tan admitted to taking a large quantity of the drug from her workplace, the Resthaven Paradise aged care home, in Adelaide in 2015.
She gave the insulin to her father who has diabetes, so he could take it back to China after visiting her in Australia.
