NHS Employers response to the Chief Medical Officer and Chief Nursing Officer announcement on professional regulation

NHS Employers deputy director Alastair Henderson said: “NHS Employers is pleased these long-awaited proposals on professional regulation have now been set out. We think it is absolutely right that employers responsibility for ensuring the continuing competency of their staff is clearly recognised.

 

“I know that NHS organisations want the regulatory process to be consistent across different professions, efficient in operation and in step with employer processes. These proposals will be a welcome contribution to achieving these aims.

 

“NHS Employers will now be carefully considering the implications of these proposals for employers, staff and patients and we will be holding discussion with employers to ensure their views are fed into the consultation.”
