A Liverpool-based mental health nurse who made a colleague's "skin crawl" with a series of explicit and racist sexual remarks while they were at work has been struck off.
Michael Turner, who worked for Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust at Clock View Hospital in Walton, made crude remarks about performing sex acts on his female colleague, who was in a junior position to him in 2018. A Nursing and Midwifery Council fitness to practise panel found Mr Turner had told one woman she had a fat a*** and talked to colleagues about tying people up for sex.
Despite his behaviour, Mr Turner was only initially suspended following a panel hearing in September 2021. Following two further reviews of his sanction, both three month extensions, the NMC have now stripped Mr Turner of the right to work in the nursing profession.
