Glasgow nurse suspended after being drunk while dispensing medication

A Glasgow nurse has been suspended after she was found drunk while dispensing patient's medication.

Margo Murray worked as a registered nurse at a care home in Barrhead, where she was found unfit for duty after attending work intoxicated and drinking while on shift.

An investigation by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) has found Murray's fitness to practise impaired, after she carried out her duties while intoxicated on September 7, 2020, including dispensing patient's medication - with witnesses describing the drug trolley as "in disarray" and had a number of resident’s medications in her pockets.
