A Quality Assured, Compliant and Complete Nurse Appraisal Service
A truly supportive approach to all of your NMC Appraisal & Revalidation requirements
Every three years, registered nurses, midwives and nursing associates have to revalidate to remain on the NMC register. Consistency and continuity are essential components of a successful approach to dealing with such regulatory and compliance demands.
Our independent Appraisal process is robust and adheres to the NMC requirements in The Code for Appraisal and Revalidation.
Our service protects nurses and their NMC registration, is free from any conflict of interest and is not vulnerable to any suggestion of bias.
Our fully trained independent, NMC-registered Nurse Appraisers are available to provide annual appraisal meetings, reflective discussions and confirmation/revalidation services.

Nurse Appraisal
NMC registered nurses and midwives must receive an annual appraisal from an NMC Registered Nurse in a Senior Role. The primary aim of an appraisal is to identify personal and professional development and educational needs, with the ultimate aim of improving clinical performance and patient care.
MEDSU Nurse Appraisers have all received comprehensive Appraiser Training to enable them to provide a formative and meaningful Appraisal experience to all nurses to prepare them for Confirmation and NMC Revalidation.
Nurse Reflection
Our network of registered NMC practitioners are trained to conduct Reflective Discussion meetings either during or separate to an Appraisal, and can verify and validate written reflective accounts prior to Confirmation.
Nurse Confirmers & Revalidation
We provide a Confirmation Service supporting nurses who do not have access to an appropriate person or Line Manager, offering continuity of relationship, independent of geographic location and spanning all work contexts throughout their career.
Our Confirmers are all registered NMC senior nurses who can empathise with nursing staff, understand their employment situation, abilities, limitations and opportunities, making them best placed to review and verify a completed portfolio prior to revalidation submission.
Pre-Employment Clinical Interviews
For healthcare organisations, we also offer a network of senior clinicians who are trained to conduct pre-employment interviews and language checks for all healthcare practitioners in accordance with the requirements of the NHS Agency Supply Frameworks.
