Successful registration with NMC The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) is the regulatory body and authority for nurses and midwives in the United Kingdom (UK). Their job is to safeguard the health and wellbeing of the public by maintaining and improving standards of professional education, practice and conduct. An important part of this work is to consider applications from nurses and midwives trained and registered in other countries who wish to practice in the UK – all Nurses from out with the UK must register with the NMC if they wish to practice as a Nurse in the UK.The monthly salary in the UK is higher than in other countries, and in general, the required professional standards, procedures and rules are even higher. The harsh reality is that having full rights as a European citizen to work in the UK doesn't automatically mean that you will be in the same position as your British colleagues to do the job, if you are not able to follow the already established practices.
