    The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that nurse Shauna McGarvey's fitness to practise was impaired by reason of her health. She was convicted in November 2023 of stealing prescription drugs at Forth Valley Royal Hospital's Acute Admissions Unit between December 2021 and February 2022. The panel suspended her from the register for 12 months with a review, and imposed an 18-month interim suspension order covering the appeal period.
