LOS ANGELES– A woman who allegedly recruited herself as a nurse at several California hospitals using “various false identities” despite not having a nursing license is facing felony charges, according to the Burbank Police Department. ABC News reported.

Amanda Leeann Porter, 44, allegedly impersonated a registered nurse at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank. The woman allegedly applied to the medical center and received a nursing job, caring for approximately 60 patients between April 8 and May 8, according to police.

Hospital staff soon discovered she was impersonating a real registered nurse who lived out of state, according to police.

Police said he received two paychecks when he was released from the hospital.

Police said the woman did not have a nursing license and was on federal probation for a fraud violation committed in Virginia.

During their investigation, police said they discovered the woman had previously obtained employment at various local hospitals using various fake identities.

Police said Porter was arrested Nov. 7 after leaving Los Angeles County Sheriff’s custody for a similar act committed at Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital in Santa Clarita.

On Tuesday, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office charged Porter with felony identity theft, felony impersonation and felony theft.

He was arraigned Wednesday and is currently being held without bail at the Los Angeles County Central Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, police said.

Police believe the woman may have committed similar crimes in the Southern California area last year and are appealing for anyone with information to come forward.
