The Nursing and Midwifery Council is the professional regulator for nurses and midwives in the UK. Its fitness to practise committee panels include nurses and midwives as well as lay members. The NMC would like to recruit 50 members of the profession to the panels.
UNISON encourages registrant members to apply for this position, particularly activists. You are paid for hearing dates and preparation work. Half-day sitting, training and reading days are paid on a pro-rata basis. Panel members will be expected to undertake some pre-reading and some e-learning in their own time.
