Ontario Police Charge Woman with 65 Offences Over Hospital Theft Spree
Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have formally charged 34‑year‑old Nassim Eronn, of Burlington, with 65 criminal counts ranging from fraud and theft to disobeying a court order.
Police say Eronn was employed at a variety of health‑care facilities across Ontario from February 2024 to March 2026. Investigators say the thefts began early in 2024, with victims ranging from hospital staff to patients in five separate facilities, and have been uncovered through a series of complaints lodged with hospital administrators and patient advocacy groups.
Key charges include:
- 34 counts of fraud under $5,000
- 13 counts of theft under $5,000
- 7 counts of breaching a court order
- Additional counts of breach of trust and impersonation
The investigation began in May after a report from Orillia Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital, where a staff member discovered missing items. That initial incident led police to scan other hospitals in the province. Multiple search warrants were served, and investigators seized a collection of clothing, furniture, and other personal items, which are now in custody.
A police spokesperson noted that “Eronn’s alleged conduct undermines the trust patients place in medical staff and threatens the integrity of health‑care environments.”
The OPP has urged the public to review their own financial records for any suspicious activity and to report potential victims. Authorities believe there may be additional, yet‑unidentified victims.
Hospitals investigated:
- Orillia Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital – April 2025 to March 2026
- Headwaters Health Care Centre (Orangeville) – August 2026 to September 2026
- Trillium Health Partners, Mississauga Hospital – August 2025 to July 2026
- St Joseph’s Health Centre (Toronto) – July 2024 to January 2025
- West Park Health Care Centre (Toronto) – February 2024 to April 2024
This case underscores the need for robust security protocols within hospitals, where patients and staff routinely handle valuable personal and medical items. The OPP will continue its investigation into the extent of the alleged thefts and assess whether new preventative measures should be implemented across Ontario’s health‑care system.
