Nurses: Training
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government how many nursing associates completed their training to become registered nurses in each year from 2018 to 2023.
- Answer
-
The Department does not hold the information requested. Whilst the Higher Education Statistics Agency publishes data on the number of students completing higher education courses in the United Kingdom, it does not publish data in a detailed enough way to allow for the identification of nursing associates completing subsequent registered nursing training.
The Nursing and Midwifery Council publishes information on their register, including the number of nursing associates across the UK who have added nursing or midwifery registration status. The following table shows the number of nursing associates adding nursing or midwifery register status, in each of the last five financial years:
