Abstract | This chapter discusses the role of the UK statutory nurse registration body, the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), in integrating Internationally educated nurses (IENs) into UK healthcare. Critical race theory (CRT), Post-colonial theory (PCT), and Intersectionality theory (IT) are the theoretical perspectives employed to inform and critique existing nurse registration structures, processes and practices in UK healthcare. The chapter reviews the history and challenges of the existing policies and procedures regarding IENs’ recruitment, retention and integration. I argue that the NMC has contributed to the continuity of the nurse shortage in the UK and the persisting issue of discrimination in UK healthcare. |
