The breadth of practice group is designed to account for the full breadth of practice that the professionals on our register work across. This covers a wide variety of scopes of practice and work settings, including the NHS, social care, community care, independent settings, education, research, commissioning, management and leadership. It has members from all four countries of the UK, and from all three professions we regulate, including across the four fields of nursing.
The student and recently registered group includes the voices of students and recently registered professionals. Hearing from them is crucial – because only by listening to the voices of those at the start of their journeys can we ensure that the Code and revalidation reflect the realities they will meet during their careers.
The public advisory group will ensure that this work is centred on the needs, perspectives and experiences of the public and people who use the services of nurses, midwives and nursing associates. Most people’s lives are touched by nursing and midwifery, so it’s vital that the public can input into changes that will have a positive effect on care.
