Nursing Revalidation: Your Path to Professional Growth and Compliance
As a dedicated healthcare professional, you understand the significance of nursing revalidation in maintaining the highest standards of patient care and advancing your career. At Nurseplus, we recognise the importance of nursing revalidation and are proud to offer free revalidation support to all of our nurses. In this article we will delve into the essential aspects of nursing revalidation and how we can assist you every step of the way, providing certificates, additional training courses, and expert guidance, all without any additional cost.
Understanding Nursing Revalidation
Nursing revalidation is a process that ensures nurses maintain their competence and professionalism throughout their careers. It involves meeting specific requirements set by regulatory bodies and provides a framework for continuous professional development. Revalidation is crucial for enhancing patient safety, maintaining professional standards, and opening doors to new career opportunities.
As a registered nurse, midwife, or nursing associate (England) you need to revalidate with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) every three years so you can remain fit to practice throughout your career.
Key Components of Nursing Revalidation
Continuing Professional Development (CPD): Nurses are required to engage in 35 hours of continuous learning activities, such as attending workshops, conferences, and training sessions. These activities contribute to their professional growth and keep them updated with advancements in healthcare practices.
Practice Hours: Nurses must accumulate 450 practice hours (900 hours if renewing two registrations) to maintain their competency. These hours are usually obtained through employment in a healthcare setting or through volunteer work.
Reflective Practice: Reflective practice encourages nurses to critically evaluate their experiences, identify areas for improvement, and develop action plans for enhancing their professional practice. Nurses must complete 5 written reflective accounts as part of their revalidation.
Feedback and Evaluation: Nurses should actively seek feedback from colleagues, patients, and other healthcare professionals to gain insights into their performance and identify opportunities for growth. Nurses must complete 5 pieces of practice-related feedback as part of their revalidation.
