Nursing and Midwifery Excellence is our way of delivering the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Pathway to Excellence Program®. Pathway to Excellence® is a globally recognised, nursing and midwifery framework.

While this programme is focused on nursing and midwifery, our allied health care professionals and healthcare support workers also have an important role to play. Read our handy toolkit here for more information. 

Anyone who wants to make meaningful change to the care that we deliver, can get involved in this important piece of work. 

Our teams will also be visiting your wards to talk to you, if you can spare five minutes to chat to them. Please get involved and join us on our Pathway to Nursing and Midwifery Excellence.
