What does “voluntary removal from the register” mean?
The practitioner asked to be removed from the register and the regulator accepted the request. This may happen during or after a fitness-to-practise case.
Concerning Lesley Sara Norman, nurse (Nursing and Midwifery Council 89H0615E).
Decision date: 11 September 2026
In plain English
The NMC agreed to Lesley Sara Norman's request for removal from its register. The decision followed allegations about wound care and records, but no allegation had been substantively proved and Case Examiners had not made a decision. The Assistant Registrar found that agreed removal served the public interest, noting that Ms Norman no longer intended to practise. The matters may be reconsidered if she seeks readmission.
Charges
The referral alleged failures to assess, act on and communicate a patient's wound, and dishonest recording of action that had not been taken. The NMC states that no allegation had been substantively proved and no Case Examiner decision had been made.
Findings
The NMC Assistant Registrar accepted agreed removal from the register. The decision records that Ms Norman no longer intended to work as a registered nurse, that the allegations were unlikely to result in striking off, and that there were no other good reasons requiring further consideration at that time. The NMC considered removal to serve the public interest and may reconsider the matters if she seeks readmission. This was not an adverse determination of the unproved allegations.
