Erasure(struck off the register)
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that Helen McLaughlan, a nurse at Wexham Park Hospital, dispensed medication from the hospital's automated system on numerous occasions without clinical justification between November 2020 and April 2021, taking it for personal use. The panel found this conduct dishonest and fundamentally incompatible with remaining on the register, and imposed a striking-off order.
