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 Georgina Ruth Parry, nurse (Nursing and Midwifery Council 91Y0616E).

Decision date: 9 April 2026 · Hearing started 9 April 2026

In plain English

The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee reviewed an existing conditions of practice order that had been in place since 2022 for sleeping on duty as a Deputy Manager. The panel found Mrs Parry's fitness to practise remained impaired and that she had shown limited insight, no remediation, and no evidence of strengthened practice over four years. The panel decided to replace the conditions of practice order with a striking-off order, which will take effect on 17 May 2026.

Charges

While employed as a Deputy Manager, on one or more occasions between approximately May 2020 and 21 August 2020, Mrs Parry slept on duty. By reason of the above, her fitness to practise was originally found impaired by reason of misconduct.

Findings

This was the fourth review of a substantive conditions of practice order originally imposed in April 2022 and extended in 2023, 2024 and 2025. The panel found Mrs Parry's fitness to practise remains impaired. It noted she has not practised as a registered nurse since 2022, has not been able to comply with the conditions, and that her reflective piece did not demonstrate understanding of why her actions were wrong, the risk to vulnerable patients, or the impact on the profession. There was no evidence of strengthened practice, training in professional standards, or testimonials from a clinical supervisor. The panel concluded there was a continuing risk of repetition and a finding of continuing impairment was necessary on public protection and public interest grounds.
