Decision date: 17 August 2026 · Hearing started 17 August 2026
In plain English
The NMC's Investigating Committee decided to place an interim conditions of practice order on registered nurse Sherles Sorianosos for 18 months. The conditions limit her to one substantive employer, stop her being the sole registered nurse in charge of a shift or ward, and require supervision until her line manager signs off her competence in medication management, recognising deteriorating patients, record keeping, falls management and workload. Case examiners have not yet decided whether there is a case to answer.
Charges
The published determination does not set out the allegations. It records that the NMC Case Examiners are yet to decide whether there is a case to answer in relation to the allegations made against Miss Sorianosos, and that the NMC will write to her when the case is ready for the next stage of the fitness to practise process.
Findings
The panel decided to make an interim conditions of practice order for a period of 18 months, determining that the conditions were proportionate and appropriate. The conditions limit Miss Sorianosos to one substantive employer (not agency or bank work), prevent her being the sole registered nurse in charge of any shift or ward, and require direct supervision in any patient-facing role until her line manager or supervisor deems her competent in medication management, recognising and responding to deteriorating patients, record keeping and clinical documentation, falls management and managing her workload. She must meet fortnightly with her line manager or supervisor and keep the NMC informed of her employment and study. The order must be reviewed before the end of the next six months and every six months thereafter.
