Practice supervisors: what do they do?

Lynne Pearce Health journalist

Designed to support students’ development, the role can also enhance your practice as a registered nurse or nursing associate

Practice supervisors support and supervise nursing students in their practice learning environment and were introduced with the Nursing and Midwifery Council’s (NMC) education standards in 2018. The role is for registered staff, so is open to any nurse or nursing associate in any practice learning environment.
