Ombudsman asks why problems persist with hospital discharges.

摘要

The Nursing and Midwifery Council's new process for re-registering nurses and midwives--revalidation--went live on April 1. Nurse managers will be expected to play a pivotal role in ensuring their staff are able to revalidate by acting as their reflective discussion partners and/or their confirmers. This article sets out the steps involved in reflective discussions and confirmation, along with the responsibilities of nurse managers involved. There is also a case study that offers tips from a nurse manager who has acted as confirmer on several occasions.
