A fair assessment?
Author: Dean, Erin
Abstract:
The NMC wants to link the proposed system of revalidation to employers' systems of appraisals. As
well as considering job performance with their manager or supervisor, nurses and midwives will be
required to reflect on how they have adhered to the code and have their fitness to practise confirmed.
Every nurse and midwife should have regular and meaningful appraisals.

Who's fit to practise?

Abstract:
This article outlines the employer’s responsibility to use an effective appraisal system. Concerns that
the NMC's current system of revalidation for nurses does not confirm nurses are fit and safe to
practise. The current post-registration education and practice (PREP) process, which does not include
an audit of the nurse's registration renewal evidence, is described and NMC plans to introduce a new
standard in 2014 are discussed. The employer's responsibility to monitor the competence of nursing
staff through the use of an effective appraisal system is outlined.

Exploring the experiences of general practice nurse peer appraisers
Author: Ferguson, Julie; Kennedy, Susan
Abstract:
2
Appraisals linked to personal development plans (PDPs) are a requirement for NHS organisations to
carry out with all staff. NHS policy documents emphasise the importance of appraisal, professional
development plans, lifelong learning and clinical supervision for nurses. However, there is limited
research regarding appraisal for general practice nurses (GPNs). The aim of this study was to explore
the perceptions and experiences of trained GPN appraisers when appraising nurse colleagues, with a
particular focus on identifying the barriers and facilitators associated with the implementation of the
appraisal process. The findings identified a number of barriers and facilitators to implementing peer
appraisal. Given the unique and varied role GPNs undertake, this study has highlighted the
importance of offering high-quality peer appraisal that encourages both reflection and the facilitation
of more person-centred PDPs.

Annual appraisals are an important part of workforce management and staff development. To improve

need to be aligned. Nurses should be well prepared for their annual appraisal so that they can gain
the most from it, as well as contribute to the work of the team, department and employer. This article
emphasises the need for the nurse and manager to have a strategy that allows for an honest
appraisal of work done, examination of ongoing needs and plans for future work.
