Mental health nurse contributed towards patients death says NMC committee

A mental health nurse from the Island has been given a five year caution order by his professional body after a misconduct charge against him was proven.

Martin Thomas Greenhalgh faced the allegations from the Nursing and Midwifery Council's fitness to practice committee.

The committee said a patient had killed themselves at Grianagh Court in November 2014 - but despite telling Mr Greenhalgh they were having suicidal thoughts he didn't raise concerns with the ward doctor or record the details.

He admitted the charge: the NMC committee said his actions had contributed to the patient's death.
