The man's daughter discovered in the spring that money was missing and had been transferred to other accounts on a total of 13 occasions since last fall, reports Sundsvalls Tidning.
The suspect worked at a home care company in Sundsvall and used to visit the man a couple of times every day.
When her boss confronted her, she immediately broke down and confessed.
According to her, the money was used for everyday purchases and to fund drug and gambling addictions.
The indictment includes the 13 money transfers and drug offenses.
