A total health economy approach to revalidation.

Revalidation has been a source of anxiety and uncertainty for some nurses and midwives. With a mixed health economy including private and public sector organisations, the Bailiwick of Guernsey wanted to ensure the system was implemented consistently. A programme of training was developed to help staff through the revalidation process and link the Nursing and Midwifery Council's Code of Conduct to practice. Training and support was also provided for confirmers.
