388 days since I lost my job as an NHS nurse for whistleblowing about a children’s nurse who sexually harassed and assaulted me and 6 other women. Disgusting amounts of public money spent on covering up the truth and persecuting me. He can nurse your children, I have no job

As a nurse who lost my job for speaking up about sexual harassment/assault in the NHS I wonder how women are protected when working in or using the NHS? On -#InternationalWomensDay I am unemployed- I lost my job while working in team CNO at NHSEngland! Hypocrisy

We need this conversation in all 4 parts of the UK Wes Streeting Karin Smyth I have lost my career trying to highlight the patient safety risks of sexual predators in the NHS. NHSE and poor regulation are part of the problem.

A really inspiring and empowering day today. Good to be with others who understand the need to speak up and challenge. “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you”. Dr Rachel Clarke Doctors’ Association UK

Today I am giving a statement for an NMC investigation that was referred in 2017. In a case involving a sexual predator. It was closed at screening then reopened. Further harm occurred. The Nursing and Midwifery Council have so much more to do to protect the public and registrants

Always right behind Michelle Russell - she is the subject of a terrible injustice that has led to loss of a very highly educated, experienced, and lovely nurse.

An hour into to the meeting we have heard about the maternity reviews, fraud and failed PSA standards. The one word the #NMCCouncil cannot articulate is SAFEGUARDING

Gareth Williams. Francis Harris My son Callum had an incredible school nurse Michelle Russell. Highly qualified, empathic, supportive - & sexually assaulted by a male colleague who'd also preyed on parents. Michelle whistle blew. Guess who lost their career whilst the other continues nursing vulnerable children?

I reported a male nursing colleague who sexually harassed and assaulted me, other colleagues and mothers of children he nursed. I lost my career. He has a caution but no restrictions on his practice. He can nurse, I am unemployed. Patients deserve to be safe when they need care

If Nursing and Midwifery Council hadn’t wasted so much of registrants money aborting Ijeoma Omambala KC investigation and more money commissioning a new coverup version there may be ensured sustainable position. Not to mention outsourcing FTP cases to expensive law firms. Cue registration fee hike
