Added to MedicWatch: 9 July 2026Report a correction

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 Mandy June Jilley, nurse (Nursing and Midwifery Council 85Y3702E).

Decision date: 26 June 2026 · Hearing started 11 November 2025 and ended 26 June 2026

In plain English

The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that nurse Mandy June Jilley failed to record a patient restraint incident in sufficient detail, did not record a NEWS2 score or call an ambulance for a deteriorating patient, gave antipsychotic medication at the wrong times, and made dishonest statements to avoid blame. The panel found her fitness to practise impaired and imposed a striking-off order on 26 June 2026, with an 18-month interim suspension pending any appeal.

Charges

Charges of misconduct while working at Uplands Hospital and Kitnocks Nursing Home. Found proved: providing insufficient detail in a note about the restraint of Patient A and not marking a record entry as retrospective; not updating the NEWS2 chart with a score after taking observations of Patient B and not calling an ambulance in response to Patient B's condition deteriorating; incorrectly stating during an investigation that she had no knowledge of Patient B's pressure sore and that she had called an ambulance but got an engaged tone, which the panel found dishonest; not completing and updating care plans; and administering Olanzapine to Patient C at the wrong time on three dates without seeking medical advice from a GP. Found not proved: not countersigning or amending a colleague's incident report, and charges that she did not take appropriate action to treat Patient B's grade 2 pressure sore.

Findings

The panel found charges 1a(iii), 1b, 2a(ii)(a), 2a(ii)(b), 2b(i), 2b(ii), 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, 5a(i)-(iii) and 5b proved, and found that the proved conduct other than the care-plan charges amounted to misconduct. It found Ms Jilley's fitness to practise currently impaired on the grounds of public protection and public interest, citing a significant risk of repetition in the absence of insight and reflection, and found that her dishonesty and refusal to take responsibility amounted to a deep-seated attitudinal issue. The panel determined that the only appropriate and proportionate sanction was a striking-off order and directed the registrar to strike Ms Jilley off the register. It also imposed an 18-month interim suspension order to cover the 28-day appeal period.

Mitigating and aggravating factors

Mitigating factors

Continuing to undertake roles in healthcare related settings; evidence of wide-ranging CPD undertaken between 2019 and 2024.

Aggravating factors

Consistent theme of avoidance of responsibility; lack of insight and reflection into the misconduct found proved; conduct which recklessly put vulnerable people receiving care at risk of suffering harm; a pattern of misconduct on a number of occasions; dishonest conduct which, whilst occurred in isolated incidents, was done to deliberately cover up where things had gone wrong and involving a direct risk to patients.
