Decision date: 21 August 2026 · Hearing started 21 August 2026
In plain English
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that Phyllis Mwangi was no longer impaired after reviewing her response to earlier dishonesty and driving conviction findings. The panel found that she had developed meaningful insight, completed relevant training and strengthened her practice, leaving a low risk of repetition. Her suspension order will lapse when it expires.
Charges
The substantive panel found that Mrs Mwangi gave inaccurate information about holding a valid UK driving licence, drove colleagues without a valid licence or insurance, acted dishonestly in misrepresenting her licence status, and was convicted of driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence and without insurance.
Findings
The reviewing panel found that Mrs Mwangi had significantly improved her insight, completed targeted training, strengthened her practice and presented a low risk of repetition. It found no current impairment on public protection or public interest grounds and decided that the nine-month suspension order would lapse on expiry.
