Annotation | That nursing is essentially a caring profession makes it hard to understand why each year a number of nurse are found guilty by the Nursing Midwifery Council (NMC) of abusing older people. The Director of Fitness to Practice at the NMC reports on what the organisation is doing to enhance nursing skills to help reduce the number of incidents of abuse that occur: the NMC Code of Professional Conduct (2004); and the Fitness for Practice at the Point of Registration project.
