clear standards of conduct and practicewhich protects the public and the reputation of our professions.

investigateconcerns and to take steps toprotect the publicin the relatively rare instances where we need to limit or restrict a nurse, midwife or nursing associate’s right to practise.

We are building a new NMCwith integrity, fairness, respect, equity and effectiveness at its core.

We are determined to improve and modernise our culture and ways of working. This will ensure that the public and professionals feel confident in our work.
