A care worker who "exploited" a vulnerable person she was looking after to treat herself to new clothes has been struck off.
Shirley Thomson, 47, used the card for online retailer Studio to purchase "multiple items" on two separate occasions and bought goods understood to have totalled around £300.
An investigation by the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) also found that Thomson, from Dundee, charged the person £12.50 an hour for cleaning services and to give them lifts in her car between August and December 2021. In that time, she also accepted money and cigarettes from the individual, named as AA to protect their identity.
