Ziena Teirikowhai Wall was sentenced to a year’s intensive supervision when she appeared in the Hamilton District Court on Tuesday, on two charges of using a bank card to pecuniary advantage. Court documents reveal Wall, 50, had been working at the Alphacare Riverview rest home in Claudelands on April 12 this year when, in the course of doing her nightly rounds, she entered the room of an elderly patient with dementia. She saw the man’s wallet lying on a table and took from it an ANZ bankcard.
