Return to Practice Network
Supporting nursing staff who are returning to clinical practice during the COVID-19 pandemic
This temporary network is to support nurses working in health and social care who are returning to work during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Nurses returning to clinical practice during this period will face unprecedented challenges. By joining the network, you'll be able to:
- access support from professional nursing and leadership expertise
- network with peers in a similar situation
- share best practice updates across the UK
- take part in hosted discussions on social media
The network will run until the Nursing & Midwifery Council closes the temporary register. Please be aware the network is not intended to provide representation or union support.
