Case Studies
These case studies feature some of our nurse and midwife members who we have helped during their FtP process.
We always welcome examples of how registrants have been affected by their investigations. To maintain anonymity we restrict names and change some details when requested.
So, if you would like to contribute your own story please get in touch.
