What Happens if a Nurse or Midwife Fails to Meet NMC Standards?
If a nurse or midwife fails to meet NMC standards, they may be subject to a fitness to practice investigation. This process can result in various outcomes, including:
- No further action if the concerns are not substantiated. - Warnings or conditions placed on their practice. - Suspension from the register for a period of time. - Removal from the register, effectively barring them from practicing.
