A nurse incorrectly administered medications and deliberately sought to mislead colleagues about her employment.
An investigation by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) found the actions of Sarah Knight had fallen “significantly short of the standards expected of a registered nurse” during her time working at Southport Hospital and two care homes in the town between October 2018 and February 2020.
A report by the NMC detailed how the former cardiology ward nurse made a “series of medication errors” and failed several assessments at the hospital, including administering incorrectly cut tablets and failing to give a patient insulin.
