Susan D Erive
Introduction
Susan D Erive was a registered nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), PIN 06A0161O, when a fitness-to-practise panel reviewing her conditions of practice order found that her fitness to practise remained impaired and directed that her name be struck off the register, effective 8 July 2026. In a decision dated 1 June 2026, the NMC’s Fitness to Practise Committee concluded that she had not engaged with the regulator or shown any compliance, remediation or insight since misconduct was found proved in relation to a resident’s care and medication practice in 2022, and that only a striking-off order would adequately protect the public .
Background Information
Erive was registered with the NMC as a nurse under PIN 06A0161O . Beyond her name, registration number and the outcome of her case, the public pages contain little biographical detail: they record no date of birth, no employment history, no training record and no regulatory findings before the 2022 events . At the last register check recorded on her profile, on 8 July 2026, her status was shown as registered with conditions, pending the striking-off order taking effect . The striking-off decision was made at a review hearing that started on 1 June 2026, the same day as the decision, and MedicWatch added the case to its record on 8 July 2026 .
The Controversy or Incident That Led to Their Cancellation
Adjudicated vs. alleged. The findings in this section come from a Nursing and Midwifery Council fitness-to-practise panel determination, which decided the charges on the balance of probabilities. Charges found proved are regulatory findings, not criminal convictions; nothing here is a criminal record unless the determination itself states one.
The charges found proved at the original hearing related to 1 October 2022 and concerned two residents. The panel found that Erive did not prioritise the needs of Resident A: she failed to investigate the cause of the resident’s pain and confusion, failed to treat them appropriately, failed to escalate their deterioration for medical advice, and failed to act promptly over a catheter change . A further finding was that she did not manage Resident A’s condition appropriately when she pretended to administer an injection that was in fact a placebo .
The remaining findings concerned medication practice in relation to Resident B. The panel found that Erive adopted poor medication practice by asking an untrained healthcare assistant to administer medication to Resident B after she had dispensed it, that she failed to witness the attempted administration, and that she failed to comply with the Covert Medication Policy . Delegating administration to a healthcare assistant not trained in medication was among the failures found proved, alongside the breach of the policy governing covert administration .
The decision under which she was struck off was itself a review of a conditions of practice order imposed after those findings. Reviewing the substantive order, the panel found that Erive had not engaged with the NMC at any stage and had provided no evidence of compliance with the conditions, no reflective material, and no evidence of insight, remediation, training or strengthened practice . It determined there was nothing to indicate the risk of repetition had reduced and that the concerns identified by the original panel remained unresolved. The panel concluded that her fitness to practise remained impaired on both public protection and public interest grounds, and that only a striking-off order would adequately protect the public and maintain confidence in the profession .
Public Reaction and Consequences
The immediate consequence was regulatory: the review panel directed that Erive’s name be struck off the register, with the direction effective 8 July 2026 . The determination records that the striking-off followed her non-engagement with the conditions of practice order rather than any new incident of care failure after 2022 . Neither the determination page nor her practitioner profile records any press coverage, public statements or online campaigns connected with the case; both confine themselves to the regulator’s findings and links to the underlying decision . MedicWatch, which describes itself as an independent record service aggregating publicly published decisions of UK healthcare regulators, added the case to its record on 8 July 2026 .
Current Status
Erive’s most recent recorded outcome is erasure — struck off the register — decided on 1 June 2026 by the NMC, with the direction taking effect on 8 July 2026 . MedicWatch’s explainer notes that the decision sets out when the direction takes effect and any appeal provisions, and directs readers to the official NMC register for her current registration status . Her profile was last verified against the NMC register on 8 July 2026, the day the striking-off order took effect, and at that check it still displayed the earlier status of registration with conditions .
Impact on Their Career/Life
The striking-off order removed Erive from the register on which her status as a registered nurse depended, ending her ability to practise as a registered nurse in the UK from 8 July 2026 unless a successful appeal intervened . The panel’s reasoning placed her complete non-engagement at the centre of the outcome: no compliance with conditions, no reflective material and no evidence of insight or remediation, with the original concerns left unresolved . The determination page gives no information about her subsequent employment or personal circumstances, and her profile records no later regulatory decisions . Her case remains part of MedicWatch’s browsable record of nurse erasures, listed under the outcome “struck off the register” with the decision date of 1 June 2026 .
