Struck off the register
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that Naomi Butcher, a hospice nurse, made multiple medication errors over a six-month period, including giving a terminally ill patient ten times the prescribed dose of midazolam and falsely recording the correct dose. She also made an unprofessional comment about a dying patient and made discriminatory remarks while refusing a deceased patient's family permission to visit. The panel found her fitness to practise impaired and ordered her to be struck off the register, with an 18-month interim suspension order.
