Decisions and hearings
- 8 April 2026 · Nursing and Midwifery Council · review hearingStruck off the register
The NMC found that Maria Poblete, a registered nurse working as a Deputy Sister at a nursing home, did not properly review or assess a vulnerable resident's pressure wounds for several months in 2022, did not update care plans or complete required risk-score forms, and did not escalate the wounds to a senior nurse or specialist. The resident developed serious sacral wounds. She was placed on a 12-month conditions of practice order in April 2025. At today's review she had not engaged with the NMC, so the panel decided to strike her name off the register.
