VISTA – A night-shift worker at an Encinitas nursing home was sentenced Wednesday to a year in jail and five years probation for stealing credit cards from elderly patients.
Patricia Carol Taienao, 43, pleaded guilty two months ago to two counts each of residential burglary and theft from an elder.

“You took significant advantage of a position of trust, and you violated that trust,” Judge Aaron Katz told the defendant.
