TWO nurses who have been accused of allowing unauthorised people to work on a ward at Central Middlesex Hospital will appear at a misconduct hearing this month.

Diana Anie and Rosetta West will both appear before the Nursing and Midwifery Council in central London.

It is alleged that in March 2004 while employed as registered nurses at the hospital, in Acton Lane, Park Royal, they allowed individuals to work on ward B3 without the authorisation of the North West London Hospitals NHS Trust.

At the time Ms Anie was working as a ward sister and Ms West as a lecturer practitioner.

The hearing will be held on January 20.
