Nurse suspended after failing to hand out vital medicines at care home

A Liverpool nurse has been suspended after failing to administer vital medicines and falsely filling out paperwork indicating she had done so.

While working as a registered nurse at Cressington Court Care Home in May 2020, Stefania-Mimi Iordache did not correctly give two separate people their required water tablets. Both residents’ medication administration records had been signed by Mrs Iordache to say they had been handed out as expected.

A Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) fitness to practise committee was told how Mrs Iordache failed to establish the condition of a resident transferred to the home from the Royal Liverpool Hospital who died 10 days later relating to urinary sepsis.
