INDIANAPOLIS (AP) _ A state board has suspended the license of an Indianapolis veterans medical center manager who made fun of suicide in an email.
The Indiana Behavioral Health and Human Services Board voted Monday to suspend clinical social worker Robin Paul's license. Photos in the email sent to clinic staff in December show a toy Christmas elf posing as a patient, pleading for anxiety medication and hanging himself with an electrical cord.
The 90-day suspension was agreed to last week by Paul and Attorney General Greg Zoeller's office, while his office investigates. Zoeller could file a formal licensing complaint with the board.
Paul already was suspended from her position at Roudebush Veterans Affairs Medical Center, where she managed a transitional clinic that offered mental health and other services to returning veterans.
