A nurse who lied about taking a patient’s vital blood sugar readings and then falsifying records to cover his tracks has been struck off.
Darren Scott Diplexcito placed the patient at “direct and serious risk of harm” by failing to take the four hourly readings while working at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley.
Diplexcito was said to have “deliberately misled and compromised his colleagues” when he “falsified” the patient’s medical chart by entering fake readings.
