To consider reporting my ex husband's NHS nurse affair partner?

I have changed some details as they’re outing but tried to keep the gist the same.

Last year I discovered my husband was having an affair. The woman he was having an affair with is a nurse who works for the NHS. I don’t know where exactly she works or what kind of nurse she is. In the aftermath of me discovering the affair, one evening this woman turned up at my house and started verbally abusing me on my doorstep. She shouted and screamed at me in front of my kids, saying my husband had dumped her (!) and it was my fault because I “beat him up”, my children are scared of me and he is only with me to protect my children from me.

I live on a quiet street and my neighbours saw and heard all this go on. Thankfully my next door neighbour came to my defence and told this woman to leave or she’d call the police, which thankfully she did. I was a wreck, my 7 year old daughter heard it all and was crying, it was awful. In the time that followed I genuinely feared for my safety in my home and had to be signed off work for a month.

The woman never came back (and neither did the husband thank goodness) but I’m wondering whether I should make a complaint about her. I don’t know if I even can, how I’d go about it, or whether I should just let it lie.

Needless to say that I’ve never laid a finger upon my ex husband, our children or anyone for that matter.

Not all nurses work in hospitals though so are out and about in uniform.

OP needs to move on - this is revenge not some concern about patient/public safety

Mmm, but seriously what community nurse would be stupid enough to do this in her uniform? Nah.

No one will have been fired for having an affair - don’t be so silly!

From your condescending replies throughout the thread, I presume you’re a nurse? 🙄

She turned up in her work uniform to verbally harass OP at her home address infront of minors (and the neighbour who is a witness). She has breached the NMC code of conduct.

I cant believe people are still commenting even though the OP has long gone
The OP has already said she has no idea where the person works or what type of nurse she is, she may not even be a registered nurse (so the NMC would be irrelevant)
it happened over a year ago, I can absolutely say the NMC would not be the slightest bit interested in he said she said allegations or the fact this person was shagging someones husband

Wales have health boards

Yes we do have health boards, but I've been on the Welsh NHS for 25 years, and i can assure you nobody gets fired for having affairs, even ones between staff. The NHS would collapse in my area of they did, the sh*t that's gone on over the years!
