Glasgow nurse stole dangerous drugs from psychiatric hospital then tried to blame others

A Glasgow mental health nurse who took medication from hospital supply has been struck off from the register.

Ingrid Lee Lardy worked as a nurse in the Carrick Ward at the Priory Hospital in Glasgow where she treated patients with "acute psychiatric conditions and patients with drug and/ or alcohol addiction".

Miss Lardy admitted to charges put to the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) of removing the medication - named Chlordiazepoxide or 'Librium' - from the hospital's stock cupboard, knowing she wasn't entitled to do so, as well as failing to keep the key to the medication cupboard securely on her. The incidents all occurred between October 23 and 31, 2019.
