Erasure(struck off the register)
The HCPTS panel struck hearing aid dispenser Prina Karia off after finding that she kept cash paid by five service users and falsified their records to hide the thefts. The false notes could have endangered future care. She showed no remorse, insight or relevant remediation, and the panel found a significant repetition risk.
