NMBI engages in stakeholder and external consultation processes

The Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI) regularly consults with registered nurses and midwives as well as stakeholder bodies when updating standards and guidance or other materials. One such consultation process involved  seeking feedback on a draft of new Nurses Rules which would update the Nurses Rules 2010.

Guide to Consultation

The purpose of this Guide is to supplement the existing knowledge in the organisation by outlining some of the key considerations relating to effective consultation, starting with a consideration of what we, as an organisation, mean by ‘consultation’

External consultations

NMBI engages with external bodies on a large number of matters relating to nurses/midwives and the practice of nursing and midwifery. As part of this participation with external bodies, NMBI participates in consultations through written submissions some of which are available to download and view below.
