Increasing number of nurses and midwives leaving profession ‘highlights major challenges faced by health and care sectors'

Increasing number of nurses and midwives leaving profession ‘highlights major challenges faced by health and care sectors' New figures show a continuation of previous trends.

In July, we published data which showed that for the first time there were more nurses and midwives leaving the register than joining it. Today’s figures show that trend is continuing. Over the last 12 months the number of UK graduates leaving the profession has increased by nine percent.

The number of nurses and midwives from Europe leaving the register has also increased by 67 percent, while the number joining the register from the EU has dropped dramatically by 89 percent. Nursing and Midwifery Council
