A man spent several night shifts caring for patients at Winnipeg's St. Boniface Hospital in July despite not actually being employed there, the regional health authority said. The impersonator worked the shifts between July 2 and July 17, the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority said in a press release on Thursday. Though the regional health authority did not specify the gender of the individual, CBC News has independently verified the imposter was a man. The Winnipeg Regional Health Authority said the individual had no access to medications during any of the time he was at the hospital. Police have spoken to the individual and determined no ill will was intended, the health authority said, adding further action is not anticipated.
