Framing the nursing and midwifery contribution: driving up the quality of care

This report summarises the contribution of nurses and midwives, which was outlined in 'High quality care for all: NHS next stage review'

This document sets out a direction of travel for the professions. We welcome comments on the ideas that we have set out here, and we would like to engage further with stakeholders to take the work forward; including considering the priorities and the resources and other implications of any future work. We will do this through the professional networks that already exist, and other stakeholders.
