Suspension(suspended from practice)· 1 year
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that Sean Fergus McMullan, an adult nurse from Mid and East Antrim, breached professional boundaries by sending sexually motivated messages to a patient on Grindr, failed to disclose a conflict of interest when triaging him, and dishonestly told his employer's investigation that the patient or someone else had sent the messages. The panel suspended him for 12 months, with an 18-month interim suspension covering the appeal period.
