The site inspection summary reports for Royal College of Surgeons Ireland (RCSI) and South East Technological University (SETU), Waterford are now available on our website.

As part of our mandate to protect the public, we assess and approve all education programmes in nursing and midwifery across the country, conducting site inspections of university and college departments, and their partner hospitals and health services to ensure high standards of nursing and midwifery education and practice. 

The site inspection of SETU Waterford took place in February 2024, while the site inspection of RCSI took place in March 2024. Both reports were approved by the Board of NMBI on 29 May 2024 and published in July.

The inspection reports provide an in-depth look at each undergraduate programme leading to registration and include a summary of the commendations, conditions and recommendations, where appropriate.

We would like to thank both education bodies and their practice partners for their collaboration.

The reports are available to view on our website.
