A woman who lied about her qualifications to get a job as a senior nurse caring for sick and premature babies has been banned from the profession.
Tanya Nasir, 45, from Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, became ward manager on the neonatal unit at the Princess of Wales Hospital in Bridgend in 2019, after she lied about being a highly qualified neonatal nurse and an Army combat medic.
She was found guilty on nine counts of fraud and false representation and jailed for five years in October 2024.
The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) committee concluded Nasir's actions would put vulnerable patients at "a real risk of significant harm, which could have had catastrophic consequences".
