Overview

Our Professional Strategic Advisory Group is made up of senior nurses and midwives, as well as leaders in education and health. They work within a range of settings across the four countries of the UK.

The group meets four times a year and is chaired by Donna O’Boyle, Acting Executive Director of Professional Practice.

It offers a regular opportunity for the NMC to engage with senior professionals on its register, and provide timely, strategic advice on whether initiatives and proposals aimed at nursing and midwifery professionals are fit for purpose.

The group helps enhance public protection by incorporating insights from contemporary practice and offers advice to the NMC’s Executive on key strategic developments.

Objectives

  • Ensure that the expertise, experience, and knowledge of senior nursing and midwifery professionals inform and challenge all aspects of our regulatory, support, and influencing work.
  • Provide a collaborative and consultative space for discussion, actively involving senior nursing and midwifery professionals in co-producing the NMC’s strategic work on the future of regulation in the sector.
  • Identify potential obstacles to the delivery and implementation of new NMC initiatives that support nursing and midwifery professionals and provide strategic advice to help overcome these barriers.
