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 Lisa Clare Herbert, nurse (Nursing and Midwifery Council 82B1482E).

Decision date: 7 September 2026

In plain English

The NMC accepted Lisa Clare Herbert's application for agreed removal while investigating medication and record-keeping concerns. She disputed the concerns, and no allegation had been proved or considered by Case Examiners. The Assistant Registrar concluded that removal was in the public interest because she no longer intended to practise and the allegations were unlikely to result in striking off. The matters may be reconsidered if she seeks readmission.

Charges

Unproved allegations concerned administering oral methadone to the wrong patient, controlled-drug checking and recording, failure to escalate and report an error, documentation and vital-sign monitoring, and failure to inform or apologise to the patient. Ms Herbert disputed the concerns and said she had no recollection of the incident or being informed of an error.

Findings

The NMC Assistant Registrar accepted agreed removal. The investigation was at an early stage and had not reached Case Examiners; no allegation had been substantively proved. The decision records that Ms Herbert no longer intended to practise and that the serious allegations were unlikely to lead to striking off. Matters may be considered again if she applies for readmission. The stated 12-month period concerns publication of the decision, not a sanction duration.
