Disgraceful-she has been allowed to "assault" patients.

So easy to check registration.

Tis disgraceful and surprised at the employers for not checking

Every time I renewed my license I had to supply a copy and now much more easier for them to check

Yes-and she had been working for 4 years!

Anyone can check the NMC register online.

Why on earth did nobody ask her for her registration details? I wonder if there is more to this story- maybe she had false documents? I simply can not imagine not just one, but at least two different employers NOT asking to see her details.

Specializes in ICU.

I've got an interview tomorrow and have to bring photographs, proof of address x 2, my passport, national insurance, NMC pin/statement of entry and the originals of my qualifications, provide 3 professional references and then account for any gaps in employment. Presumably her employers did none of that.
