Erasure(struck off the register)
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that nurse Laura Coulbeck acted dishonestly by falsely telling her employer she had suffered a close family bereavement, for which she received paid compassionate leave, and by reporting pregnancy-related illness when she was not pregnant, for which she received paid sick leave. The panel found her fitness to practise impaired on public interest grounds and imposed a striking-off order, with an 18-month interim suspension pending any appeal.
