Why revalidation? • PREP has become discredited • Care scandals at Mid Staffs and elsewhere • No assurance to the public that nurses and midwives are keeping their knowledge and skills up to date Key changes • Requirement to write ‘reflective accounts’ based on feedback you receive, your CPD or events in practice • Reflective discussion with another registrant • Confirmation from your manager that you have complied Who’s affected? • Every nurse and midwife on the NMC register – that’s 680,000 people • Everyone re-registering with the NMC from April 2016 • Students need to start preparing now... Six steps to revalidation 1. Practice 2. Continuing professional development (CPD) 3. Reflective accounts and discussion 4. Appraisal 5. Confirmation 6. Revalidation Step 1: practice • 450 hours in practice every three years • All practice that involves a nursing or midwifery qualification counts, including unpaid work • Those with a dual registration as nurses and midwives still have to complete 900 hours (450 in each profession)
