Nurse, 55, rapped for prescribing Viagra for her husband

30 January 2008 (Wednesday)

A NURSE who prescribed her husband the sex drug Viagra has been found guilty of misconduct.

Sylvia Gillicker now faces losing her job after a hearing heard she also issued a number of other medications to her husband.

Mrs Gillicker, 55, faced three charges when her case was heard by a professional conduct committee of the Nursing and Midwifery Council last Friday.

The charges relate to when she was employed as a practice nurse at the Causeway Medical Centre in Warrington and occurred over a three-and-a-half year period. Mrs Gillicker, from Penketh, Warrington, could be struck off or the panel may decide to take some other form of action, such as putting a series of conditions in place to restrict the way she works in the future, suspending her, or giving her a caution.

During the hearing, the panel heard that on October 17, 2003, Mrs Gillicker entered her husband as a temporary patient on the medical centre’s computer system, while he was registered with his own GP.

They were also told from that October 17, 2003, to April 28, 2006, she went on to issue him with many prescriptions, the majority of which were after his temporary registration had expired on or around November 1, 2003.

The final charge outlined to the nurse was that she had issued her husband with Viagra on April 28, 2006, despite the fact that it was not advisable for him to take the drug because of the medication he was already taking.

Viagra is taken by men with impotence problems but can also be used for other illnesses and disorders, such as prolonged high blood pressure.

Mrs Gillicker’s case was adjourned until April 25 when the panel will make a decision on what sanctions should be imposed.

Leila Harris, a spokeswoman for the NMC, said: “The misconduct case against the nurse has been proven. All three charges have been proven. The case will resume on April 25.”
