| Vqk (Name Suppressed) | Paramedic (also a registered nurse) | On 14 and 15 December 2017, around the time he attempted suicide, he stalked his former domestic partner, Ms AB: he took her mobile phone, used it to post explicit photos of her on social media and sent messages that pretended to come from her, blaming her for his suicide attempt. In 2019, while his application for paramedic registration was being considered, he did not tell the Board about the charges. Nine charges laid; eight (including theft of her phone and illegal use of a carriage service) were withdrawn. Pleaded guilty in November 2019 to stalking (Crimes Act 1958 (Vic) s 21A); no conviction, 12-month adjourned undertaking, men's behaviour change program, $1,000 to the court fund. | Reprimanded and registration suspended for six months. VCAT (J Billings, Senior Member; C Jones and E Rankins, Members) took his mental health into account and imposed six months' suspension, keeping him in the profession and his name suppressed. | Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal | VIC, Australia | 2022-04-06 |
