We met with members of the Association of Nigerian Nurses in Ireland (ANNI) on 7 June.

Our CEO, Sheila McClelland, Director of Registration, Dr Ray Healy, and Head of Operations Kathyann Barrett met with the group following an invitation to discuss the issues facing registrants from Nigeria.

Ms McClelland discussed the role of NMBI as the regulator for the nursing and midwifery professions, while Dr Healy provided detail on the recognition and registration process.

Our State of the Register report in 2022 found that there were 680 nurses and midwives of Nigerian nationality on the Register.
