RIT Investigator

Our vision is for safe and effective nursing and midwifery practice across the four countries of the UK – regulated and supported by the NMC – a fit for the future organisation, with fairness and equity at the heart of everything we do.

Our role is to protect the public and maintain confidence in the nursing and midwifery professions. As the largest independent regulator in Europe of more than 860,000 nursing and midwifery professionals, we have a crucial role in making this a reality.

We do this by setting and promoting high education and professional standards for all future and registered nurses and midwives in the UK and nursing associates in England.

We also ensure every nurse, midwife and nursing associate on our Register meets clear standards of conduct and practice which protects the public and the reputation of our professions.

We have a duty to investigate concerns and to take steps to protect the public in the relatively rare instances where we need to limit or restrict a nurse, midwife or nursing associate’s right to practise.

We are building a new NMC with integrity, fairness, respect, equity and effectiveness at its core.

We are determined to improve and modernise our culture and ways of working. This will ensure that the public and professionals feel confident in our work.

The Registration Investigations Team (RIT) was formed by merging the Incorrect and Fraudulent Entry Team (IE/FE) and the Registrar and Appeals Support Team (RAST) into one. RIT is responsible for managing and investigating all registration related concerns involving applications to join or rejoin the register, registration renewals, and the misuse of protected titles.

You will gather and analyse information that will assist the Investigating Committee and the Assistant Registrar in their decision-making processes.

This an important role in helping the NMC ensure it fulfils its statutory obligation to protect the public and in maintaining the integrity of our register of nurses, midwives and nursing associates.
