Victory as restrictions lifted on nurse who gave Bible to patient

from Christian Concern:

You may remember Sarah Kuteh, a nurse who was dismissed from her job after talking to patients about her Christian faith and giving a Bible to one patient.

After dismissing her, Darent Valley Hospital reported Sarah to the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), questioning her ‘fitness to practise’.

For nearly two years since, the NMC has held a series of hearings to determine whether Sarah would continue to be able to practise as a nurse.

Supported by the Christian Legal Centre, Sarah engaged an eminent barrister, Jonathan Storey, to represent her at the hearings.

Finally, on the 26th July 2018, the NMC panel unanimously ruled that Sarah was fully ‘fit to practise’ and revoked all restrictions on her nursing practice.

Praise God that Sarah is free to work as a nurse again without restrictions.

We’ve put together a video which tells Sarah’s story in depth. It shows the real effect these events have had on her life, but also the joy of being free once again to practise as a nurse without restriction.
