Margaret Haywood Re-instated

Margaret Haywood, the nurse who was struck off the register (on the grounds of breaching patient confidentiality) for taking part in a Panorama programme that highlighted poor patient care has been re-instated and instead given a one-year caution.  All credit to her union, the RCN,  for supporting her.  Unite also issued a statement of support (see previous blog post).  It is unfortunate that one of the other major health unions actually supported her original punishment.
