Erasure(struck off the register)
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that John Andrew Charters, a mental health and adult nurse from Inverness, was convicted in April 2024 of assaulting two care home residents, in 2014 and 2022. The panel found his fitness to practise impaired, decided a striking-off order was the only sufficient sanction, and directed that he be struck off the register, with an 18-month interim suspension covering the appeal period.
