How to prepare for the NEW NMC OSCE 2021
Due to popular demand, we have opened a new date for NMC OSCE training for the current NMC OSCE exam. The next NMC OSCE course is on 21st July, 2021. We've found that our General Adult Nurses, Children's Nurses, Mental Health Nurses, Learning Disability Nurses and Midwives are keen to complete their NMC OSCE exams before the NMC OSCE Changes in August 2021.
What are the main NMC OSCE for Adult Nurses changes in August 2021?
There are several changes coming soon to the NMC OSCE from August 2021. The main change is that the 6-station NMC OSCE will now be a 10-station NMC OSCE. This includes APIE; 2 pairs of 2 skills and stations assessing behaviours and values. There are also changes to the stations. For example, the Assessment station will now be longer and include a full A-E assessment including airway; breathing; circulation; disability and exposure. Evaluation will also change with a verbal SBAR handover from you to your assessor. New skills are also being introduced.
What else is changing in the NMC OSCE?
The timings. The Assessment station is becoming longer and going from 15 minutes to 20 minutes. The planning station is shortening by a minute from 15 minutes to 14 minutes. The Implementation station is increasing from 15 minutes to 16 minutes and the Evaluation station is shortening from 15 minutes to 14 minutes.
