The defendant in this case was a qualified and registered adult nurse who embellished their nursing experience, employment history and other qualifications to secure the roles they were appointed to.

The defendant made a number of false representations on applications to NHS hospitals in both England and Wales, dating back to 2015, submitting forged documentation and false information that also enabled her to provide a false reference.  

NHS Wales recruitment is a robust process, and a thorough review has been carried out. There is no indication of any failure by any individual or department surrounding the recruitment or appointment process.

Ultimately, it was the diligence of NHS Wales staff which led to the defendant’s conviction. Other defendants identified in this investigation who were not directly employed by the NHS have also been prosecuted.
