NMCWatch Registrant care CIC was encouraged to read this article by the Independant https://lnkd.in/diNpuXVq However the culture is not isolated to how they treat their own staff - it is endemic on how they behave and how it has become the norm to behave as above how any other organisation in healthcare is expected to behave. Someone very wise said to me recently " If this were an NHS trust it would have been in special measures years ago and the whole board / council would have gone" There are some very good personell at the NMC trying their best to influence change but when behaviour is so indoctrinated something big has to happen. We hear from families of patients, registrants and friends of registrants who have taken their own lives to hear this behaviour is to ALL the NMC deal with. Just because you are under investigation does not mean you should be treated with any less compassion, fairness and care. Many of those under investigation will have their no case to answer and many of those even going to hearing will be cleared. From those cases we have been involved with the glaring aspect is even cases that have gone on years have had very poor investigation, lack of transparency around evidence gathering and a complete disregard for what this is supposed to be about - ensuring safe practitioners remain in the workplace and ones that are beyond remediation are shown this is not the profession for them Currently the process does nothing for "learn" and all for "blame
