St Andrews nurse struck off for using patient's bank card

St Andrews nurse struck off for using patient's bank card A senior nurse who bought herself goods after snatching a mental health patient’s bank card from a hospital safe has been struck off.

Jean Mberi twice withdrew funds from the woman’s bank account while she was being treated at St Andrew’s Hospital in Northampton.

The woman, referred to as Patient A, had been sectioned under the Mental Health Act and had her possessions, including her bank card, kept in the hospital’s safe.

But Mberi took the woman’s debit card and withdrew a total of £220 out of her bank account, the Nursing and Midwifery Council heard. Northampton Herald and Post
