    Belfast Nurse Is Struck Off After Striking Severely Disabled Child
    Main Category: Nursing / Midwifery News

    A nurse from Belfast has been struck off the register after being
    found guilty of striking a disabled child.

    A panel of the Nursing and Midwifery Council's (NMC) Conduct and
    Competence Committee found Eavan Murphy, who at the time was working
    as an 'E' grade Learning Disabilities Nurse in Forest Lodge at Belvoir
    Park Hospital, Belfast, guilty of misconduct and will no longer allow
    her to work as a nurse.

    The panel heard that she gave the child several short, sharp slaps.
    Based on the fact proven, they decided that Murphy's actions caused
    physical distress and had the potential to cause physical harm.

    The 35-year-old also failed to report the incident involving the child
    and attempted to influence members of staff not to report the incident
    either.

    Commenting on the panel's decision, Leila Harris, spokesperson for the
    NMC said:

    "The allegations proven constitute a serious departure from standards
    as set out in the NMC code of professional conduct and involved one of
    the most vulnerable members of society, a physically and mentally
    disabled child. No evidence was presented that the registrant does not
    continue to pose a risk to patients and therefore the panel decided
    that in the interests of patient safety, the registrant should be
    struck off."

    The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) is the UK regulator for two
    professions, nursing and midwifery. The primary purpose of the NMC is
    protection of the public. It does this through maintaining a register
    of all nurses, midwives and specialist community public health nurses
    eligible to practise within the UK and by setting standards for their
    education, training and conduct. Currently the number of registrants
    exceeds 686,000. The Nursing and Midwifery Order 2001 (The Order),
    sets out the NMC's role and responsibilities.

    You stole my question!!!!! I bet she was playing with iron filings
    before she hit the child. Or, may be she had just watched a rerun of
    "iron eagle" and hate Lou Gossett and that set her off.
