Understanding the NMC Confirmation Form: Your Complete Guide

If you're preparing for NMC revalidation, you've likely heard about the confirmation form - but what exactly is it, and why is it so important? At Reflect & Revalidate, we help nurses and midwives navigate this crucial step with confidence.

What is the NMC Confirmation Form?

The NMC confirmation form is an essential document required as part of your revalidation application. This form must be completed by an appropriate confirmer - a registered NMC professional who can verify that you've met all the revalidation requirements and participated in a meaningful reflective discussion about your practice.

Without a properly completed confirmation form, your revalidation application cannot be submitted to the NMC.

Who Can Be Your Confirmer?

Your confirmer must be another NMC-registered nurse or midwife who can objectively review your revalidation portfolio and conduct a reflective discussion with you. Many nurses and midwives struggle to find an appropriate confirmer, especially if they work independently, are between jobs, or don't have easy access to NMC-registered colleagues.
