A former admissions director at the Meadow Green Nursing Home in Waltham has been indicted in connection with a scheme to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars from an elderly resident, Attorney General Maura Healey announced. Christina Polcari, 54, of Belmont, was indicted by a Middlesex County Grand Jury for Larceny over $1200 (1 count), Forgery (5 counts), and Embezzlement by Fiduciary (1 count). The AG’s Office alleges that from August 2018 until May 2019, Polcari engaged in a scheme whereby she misappropriated over $230,000 of an elderly resident’s funds and spent the money on personal expenses such as repairs to her home, restaurants, cash withdrawals and vacations for her and her family. Investigators also allege that Polcari used a forged signature for various promissory notes, letters, and checks in order to perpetuate the scheme and in an attempt to cover up the theft.
