Information for nurses and midwives on responding to unexpected incidents or emergencies

Information for nurses and midwives on responding to unexpected incidents or emergencies Following recent terrorist incidents, the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) has provided information for nurses and midwives on responding to unexpected incidents or emergencies.

There may be occasions where you find yourself involved in an unexpected incident or emergency away from your normal place of work where people may require care.

As a healthcare professional, your first instinct is often to go to the aid of others in need. However, it is important that if you find yourself in an unclear situation you should follow official government guidance to run, hide and tell.
