    Erasure(struck off the register)

    The NMC found that registered nurse Belinda Jayne Ellams made comments about Muslims to a colleague, brought weighted steel balls and sharpened scissors into a care home, and posted an offensive image on Facebook. The panel found her conduct was motivated by hostility towards Muslims and had the effect of violating her colleague’s dignity. It found her fitness to practise impaired, noted no evidence of insight, and imposed a striking-off order with an 18-month interim suspension order.
