We regulate nurses and midwives in the United Kingdom and nursing associates in England. The Code sets out the standards of practice and behaviour we expect of all our registered healthcare professionals.

Nurses

Across the United Kingdom, we regulate over 788,000 nurses. Each one plays an integral part in giving compassionate, evidence-based, and person-centred care.

Midwives

We’re here to support midwives deliver the safe, kind and effective midwifery care that all women have a right to expect.

Nursing Associates

We regulate nursing associates, who bridge a gap between health and care assistants and registered nurses.
