An on-duty NHS nurse who was caught stealing two headache tablets from a hospital pharmacy has been suspended from the profession after being told she poses a 'continuing risk to the public'.
Francesca Morgan lost her job at Arrowe Park Hospital, near Liverpool, after taking paracetamol and co-codamol without permission when she felt unwell during her shift.
Now, a year and a half later, she's been suspended from the entire profession for the next six months.
Miss Morgan was caught after covert surveillance, installed by police, recorded her taking the pills on two separate occasions, in June 2022, without getting written permission first.
