All nurses and midwives who practise in Ireland must, by law, be listed on the Register of Nurses and Midwives.
All nurses and midwives who practise in Ireland must, by law, be listed on the Register of Nurses and Midwives.
At its meeting on Wednesday, 12 February, the Board of NMBI confirmed the names of those who are removed from the Register of Nurses and Midwives as they have not renewed their annual licence to practice.
The Board considers removals under Section Section77(1) of the Nurses and Midwives Act 2011, as amended. Removal notices are being issued to those who did not renew their registration for 2025. Please note that notifications of removals are sent to the Health Service Executive (under Section 82 of the Act).
It is an offence to practise nursing or midwifery if your name is not on the Register. Practice includes clinical practice, nursing or midwifery management, education and research.
It is the registrants’ responsibility to ensure that their name is on the Register if they practise nursing or midwifery in Ireland.
Registrants wishing to restore their name to the Register for 2025 are required to pay a restoration fee of €250 in addition to the annual renewal fee of €100. They must also comply with the restoration requirements at the time of application.
