RCMP investigating thefts of jewelry from residents at Nanaimo seniors home
NANAIMO — RCMP are investigating multiple thefts of jewelry from residents at a south Nanaimo seniors care facility, NanaimoNewsNOW has learned.
A letter, obtained by NanaimoNewsNOW, was sent to families of residents at Wexford Creek on July 31 informing them the facility’s management was in the process of cooperating with an RCMP investigation into the unexplained loss of some resident’s jewelry.
The letter, signed by site leader Sue Ball, said she would do anything possible to find out who was responsible, adding “I can imagine that these events have not been at all reassuring to those involved.”
It said all staff at Wexford Creek have a criminal record and reference check completed before beginning work.
