**Florida Woman Arrested for Impersonating Nurse After Treating Over 4,000 Patients**

**Authorities conduct investigation after concerns about qualifications of Autumn Bardisa, leading to a significant medical fraud case.**


**Autumn Bardisa, 29, was arrested in Florida for posing as a registered nurse and providing medical services to nearly 4,500 patients, raising serious concerns about patient safety and medical fraud.**

In a shocking case of medical fraud, a Florida woman, Autumn Bardisa, was arrested after it was discovered that she had been impersonating a registered nurse. Authorities initiated an investigation following the termination of her contract by AdventHealth Palm Coast Parkway due to concerns regarding her qualifications. Bardisa, 29, is accused of providing medical services to a staggering 4,486 patients over a period spanning from June 2024 to January 2025.

Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly described the situation as "one of the most disturbing cases of medical fraud we've ever investigated." Bardisa worked at the AdventHealth facility from July 2023 until her dismissal in early 2025, and investigators found she had submitted false documents, including a nursing license number that actually belonged to another nurse with a similar name employed at a different hospital.

When questioned about the discrepancies in her credentials, Bardisa claimed that she had recently married and changed her last name but failed to produce her marriage license when requested. After being offered a promotion in January, her colleague reported her when they noticed her nursing assistant license had expired. As a result, her contract was terminated, and a seven-month criminal investigation was launched.

The Flagler County Sheriff's Office ultimately issued an arrest warrant for Bardisa, charging her with seven counts of practicing a health care profession without a license and seven counts of fraudulent use of personal identification information. Authorities arrested her at home on August 5 while she was wearing scrubs.

Sheriff Staly emphasized the potential risks Bardisa posed to patients and the medical community, stating, "This woman potentially put thousands of lives at risk by pretending to be someone she was not and violating the trust of patients, their families, AdventHealth, and an entire medical community." To assist any individuals who may have received treatment from Bardisa, the Sheriff's Office set up a dedicated email address, fakenursecase@flaglersheriff.com. Bardisa has been remanded into custody at the Sheriff Perry Hall Inmate Detention Facility, where she awaits trial on a $70,000 bond.
