Nursing and Midwifery Council determination — voluntary removal
Voluntary removal from the register
The regulator’s term: voluntary erasure accepted
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 Julia Siddall, nurse (Nursing and Midwifery Council 84I0811E).
Decision date: 17 February 2026
In plain English
The NMC agreed to remove Julia Siddall from the register after Julia Siddall applied for agreed removal. The decision states that no allegation had yet been substantively proved by a statutory committee, and that the public interest was best served by allowing Julia Siddall to leave the register.
Charges
The referral raised a concern about Julia Siddall’s fitness to practise. It’s alleged that while working as a Practice Nurse between December 2021 and June 2024, Julia Siddall failed to safeguard patients by: • failing to undertake appointments • failing to record and/or escalate missed appointments • recording appointments as complete when no contact had been made with the patients. Julia Siddall accepts that she failed to undertake some telephone appointments with patients. She has said that her workload was complex and she wasn’t given adequate time to complete all of her work to the necessary standard of care. We investigated the issue and the matter was referred to the Fitness to Practise Committee.
Findings
An NMC Assistant Registrar agreed to Julia Siddall's removal from the NMC register. The decision states that no allegation against Julia Siddall had yet been found substantively proved by a statutory committee, that Julia Siddall no longer intended to work as a registered professional, and that the public interest was best served by agreeing removal.
