Interim restrictions imposed· 18 months
The NMC's Investigating Committee imposed an interim conditions of practice order on Joseph Phiri, a registered mental health nurse from Belfast, Northern Ireland, on 19 March 2026. The conditions limit him to one substantive employer, prevent him from being the sole or charge nurse on a shift, and require direct supervision in medication administration until he is assessed as safe by a senior registered nurse. The order also requires fortnightly meetings to develop an action plan covering safeguarding, record-keeping, shift allocation, and recognising and escalating patient deterioration. The order lasts 18 months and the case examiners have not yet decided whether there is a case to answer.
