Erasure(struck off the register)
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee found that adult nurse Vigneswari Ganason's fitness to practise was impaired by reason of her conviction for stealing a bank card belonging to a patient in her care and using it for several transactions. The panel imposed a striking-off order, finding her dishonesty fundamentally incompatible with remaining on the register, and an 18-month interim suspension order pending any appeal.
