A 20-year-old carer from Melksham has been fined after she admitted stealing money from a patient.
Stephanie Laba, of Milton Avenue, appeared before magistrates in Chippenham last Thursday and pleaded guilty to stealing £255 from an elderly woman in her care.
She was given an 18-month conditional discharge, and ordered to pay £50 in compensation and a £15 victim surcharge.
