A nurse has been struck off by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) after a man she was having a secret relationship with died while in his car with her. A hearing was told Penelope Williams ignored advice to call an ambulance following the man's collapse in the vehicle in a car park in Wrexham in January 2022.
The death of the man, known only as Patient A, was listed as "heart failure and chronic kidney disease triggered by a medical episode". A fitness to practise panel was told Patient A received regular treatment at the Betsi Cadwaladr health board in North Wales, where Mrs Williams worked as a general nurse on a renal unit.
