Legal documents show 45-year-old Tania Swanberg gave herself unauthorized prescriptions for Ambien sleeping pills while working for Bellingham’s Sea Mar Clinic.
Investigators say she ‘called in’ prescriptions under her name and her fiancée’s name 25 times between September 2010 and October 2011.
Swanberg was fired when she admitted to doing it, and has already faced eight counts of prescription fraud for the crime.
She now must submit to ongoing drug testing to continue to practice as a health care assistant.
