What does “interim restrictions imposed” mean?

An interim order is a precautionary restriction imposed before the regulator's investigation is complete. It is not a finding of fault — the underlying allegations have not yet been adjudicated.

Concerning Jodie Nicole Augustus, nurse (Nursing and Midwifery Council 16H1490E).

Decision date: 20 May 2026 · Hearing started 20 May 2026

In plain English

The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee imposed a 12-month interim suspension order on Jodie Nicole Augustus, a registered adult nurse, at a hearing on 20 May 2026. The interim order is not a finding of fact: a panel of the Fitness to Practise Committee has still to deal with the allegations made against her. A panel will review the order within six months and every six months after that.

Findings

The panel decided to make an interim suspension order for a period of 12 months. Unless the case has been concluded or there is a material change of circumstances, a panel will review the interim suspension order within six months and every six months thereafter. A panel of the Fitness to Practise Committee has still to deal with the allegations made against Ms Augustus.
