We have published the first Graduate Entry General Nurse Registration Education Programme Standards and Requirements for education bodies and their practice partners.
The publication provides the first education pathway in Ireland for people who already hold a National Framework of Qualifications (NFQ) level 8 undergraduate bachelor’s degree and wish to complete an education programme leading to registration as a general nurse.
Our CEO, Sheila McClelland has welcomed the announcement of 692 additional places for nursing and midwifery education programmes by Government last month.
Our Director of Education, Policy and Standards, Carolyn Donohoe, presented at the event about the evolution of education and practice standards for nursing.
On 15 June, we published the first edition of standards and requirements to ensure digital health competencies are developed in nursing and midwifery education programmes.
