A 38-year-old nurse has been charged with allegedly stealing a 77-year-old patient’s credit card to go on a $147 shopping spree as the woman lay on her death bed at Gosford Hospital. It comes as three other people are before the courts after allegedly stealing the credit cards of a fatal crash victim at North Gosford before using them to buy alcohol and tobacco. Gwendoline McNally, of Umina, had been bedridden in hospital for three months after being struck down with leg ulcers. Sadly she lost her battle and died on September 6 — but not before one of her nurses allegedly pinched her credit card and used it at Best & Less and Woolworths in Gosford’s Imperial Centre on August 28. She allegedly returned to the shopping centre on September 5 to splurge on fashion items at White Neish — the day before the elderly patient succumbed to her illness. All up the items came to $147.
