At the beginning of the month, we held a forum called 'Conversations on Nursing and Midwifery Regulation' to discuss the challenges and future for the professions in collaboration with the Chief Nursing Officer at the Department of Health.
We would like your feedback on the Draft Public Health Nursing Education Programme Standards and Requirements.
We are holding a public consultation to inform the development of the third edition of the standards and requirements for public health nursing education programmes.
We have published our draft Customer Service Charter and Action Plan 2023-2025 and are inviting members of the public to provide their feedback through a consultation.
On 15 June, our CEO, Sheila McClelland will take part in a panel discussion on the ‘Future skills needs for the health sector’ as part of the Irish University Association’s (IUA) Future of Ireland webinar.
We are undertaking a review of the guidance document, ‘Compensation Measures for Nurses Trained Outside of Ireland’ and we would like to hear from our internationally educated nursing colleagues.
Earlier this month, our CEO, President and members of our senior management team attended the annual conferences of the INMO and the IGPNEA in Killarney and Portlaoise.
Earlier this month, our Director of Midwifery, Dawn Johnston retired after a long and established career.
Dawn first joined NMBI as a Board member in 2015, before taking up the role of Director of Midwifery in 2017. She also served as Acting CEO in 2018 to 2019.
I want to take this opportunity to thank Dawn for her valued contribution to both NMBI and the midwifery profession.
She has achieved so much at NMBI, not only advising and supporting midwives but also advocating for midwives and promoting the future of the profession.
