Nursing and midwifery revalidation.

ABSTRACT

This article details the Nursing and Midwifery Council revalidation requirements essential for all registered nurses and midwives in the United Kingdom. Nursing revalidation is effective from April 2016 and is built on the pre-existing post-registration education and practice. Unlike the previous process, revalidation provides a more robust system which is clearly linked to the code and should assist towards the delivery of quality and safe effective care.
