We have published a new guidance booklet for nurses and midwives who have been referred to inquiry before the Fitness to Practise Committee.
The guide explains how the inquiry process works and provides information about:
- the terms we use
- the grounds of referral
- what happens before, during and after your inquiry
- how to prepare and attend an inquiry
- the outcomes of an inquiry
- undertakings and consents
- sanctions, and
- how to appeal a decision.
The booklet was developed as part of our commitment to provide a compassionate approach for everyone involved in the Fitness to Practise process and includes information about the supports available.
The Inquiry Information Booklet for Registrants is now available to read on our website.
