About the role

- Prepare evidence of a workforce or safety programme you led across several services.
- Practise explaining how you distinguish meaningful quality signals from incomplete data.

- Check the official Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria site for current licence and professional requirements.
Common mistakes
- Discussing nursing vision without connecting it to measures and accountable leaders.
