Suspension(suspended from practice)· 1 year
The NMC found that midwife Louise Jane Leeson repeatedly fell below the required standard in medicines management, fetal monitoring and other areas of care despite substantial supervision. It found lack of competence, not misconduct, and rejected two record-keeping allegations. The panel imposed a 12-month suspension with review, alongside a separate interim suspension covering the appeal period.
