Struck off the register
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee imposed a striking-off order on Sifiso Ncube, a registered adult nurse working in Scotland, on 24 March 2026. The panel found she had hidden her NHS Tayside employment when taking a second nursing job, made false statements about her own care company's regulatory status and staff vetting to a care home and to the Care Inspectorate, and acted dishonestly in respect of those matters. The panel concluded the repeated dishonesty, deep-seated attitudinal concerns, and absence of meaningful insight made any lesser sanction insufficient to protect the public. An interim suspension order of 18 months was imposed pending appeal.
