Nursing and Midwifery Council determination — review hearing
Struck off the register
The regulator’s term: erasure
What does “struck off the register” mean?
Being struck off (the regulator calls this "erasure") removes the practitioner from the register. They are no longer permitted to practise this profession in the UK. Erasure can be reviewed after a minimum of five years, but is otherwise indefinite.
Concerning Miss Amie Louise Allen, nurse (Nursing and Midwifery Council 19E1088E).
Decision date: 1 April 2026 · Hearing started 1 April 2026
In plain English
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found at a substantive order review meeting on 1 April 2026 that Miss Amie Louise Allen, a registered adult nurse, remained impaired and ordered her erasure from the register. She was originally suspended for 12 months in March 2024 after admitting she had failed to administer four prescribed medications and had falsified records to claim she had. The review panel found no remediation, insight or engagement, and replaced the suspension with a striking-off order taking effect on 23 April 2026.
Charges
Between 1 and 2 January 2022 while working a night shift on Ward 90 at Hull Royal Infirmary, Miss Allen admitted: failing to administer four prescribed medications (Dalteparin, Co-Amoxiclav, Levetiracetam and Co-Trimoxazole); incorrectly signing the medication administration records to indicate she had checked and administered medications; completing MAR records prior to administering medication; that those actions were dishonest in that she sought to misrepresent that she had administered medication; entering a signature for a colleague on the MAR without their knowledge or permission; and that doing so was dishonest in seeking to misrepresent that her colleague had checked the medication.
Findings
All six charges were proved by admission at the original substantive hearing on 26 March 2024, which imposed a 12-month suspension. At the first review on 14 March 2025 the suspension was extended for a further 12 months. At this second review on 1 April 2026, the panel found Miss Allen had not engaged with the NMC since the last review, provided no evidence of remediation, insight or strengthening of practice, and there remained a real risk of repetition. The panel concluded a striking-off order was the only appropriate and proportionate sanction.
Mitigating and aggravating factors
Aggravating factors
The previous reviewing panel noted concerns about attitudinal problems being difficult to remediate, that the conduct included serious dishonesty, and that there had been previous concerns about Miss Allen's behaviour.
