Working experience in Ireland
I am a qualified nurse with over ten years working experience in Ireland. I am not registered with NMC, can I become a Registered Manager in UK? What is the process of registration? - Babatunde
Dear Babatunde,
Thank you for your question.
These are the points that CQC will look at if you apply for registration as a Registered Manager:
- CQC will look at your registration in Ireland to make sure that you are on their register.
- They will look at your experience of working with the client group that you are applying for and they will need to be confident you have the necessary experience.
- They will expect you to undertake further Leadership and Management training.
- They will expect you to have the appropriate knowledge and experience to be able to comply with CQC regulations.
You can find the CQC Registration process at http://www.cqc.org.uk/content/regulations-service-providers-and-managers
Best wishes.
