A 44-year-old woman suspected of impersonating a registered nurse at a Burbank hospital and overseeing approximately 60 patients before she was discovered is due back in court next month on identity theft and other charges.
Amanda Leeann Porter, a resident of Virginia, allegedly carried out similar scams at other Southern California hospitals, according to the Burbank Police Department. Porter was arrested by Burbank police Nov. 7 after she posted bond following a similar offense allegedly carried out at Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital in Santa Clarita.
Burbank police said that in April, Porter allegedly impersonated an out-of-state registered nurse and obtained a nursing position at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center. Over the next month, she oversaw about 60 patients, police said.
“Hospital staff soon discovered Porter was impersonating a real registered nurse who lived out of state,” the police department said in a statement. “By the time Porter was terminated, she received two paychecks for the time she was fraudulently employed.”
Police said Porter is not a licensed nurse and is on federal probation for a fraud violation in Virginia.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
