A nurse has been struck off by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) after a man she was having a secret relationship with died while in his car with her.

A hearing was told Penelope Williams ignored advice to call an ambulance following the man’s collapse in the vehicle at Wrexham’s Spire Hospital in January 2022.

The death of the man, known only as Patient A, was listed as “heart failure and chronic kidney disease triggered by a medical episode”.

A fitness to practise panel was told Patient A received regular treatment at the Betsi Cadwaladr health board, where Mrs Williams worked as a general nurse on a renal unit.
