Ex-nurse accused of filing bogus records on patient's death

(AP) — A woman who worked at a nursing home for veterans in Louisiana was arrested Monday on charges she falsified records related to a resident's death.

Poirrier, an employee of the Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs, was working as a licensed practical nurse at the Southeast Louisiana War Veterans Home in Reserve when a resident died in January 2015 several hours after falling in his room, a court filing says.
