Why We Changed Our NMC OSCE Course Format (Mental Health OSCE Edition)

Background
For over 8 years, we have consistently delivered 3 - 7 day NMC OSCE courses, with all of the training done each day in succession. Whilst we have met some excellent nurses over the years and maintained good pass rates, we found that some Mental Health Nurses were feeling stressed at the idea of achieving all of the competencies within a week and pressured that if you did not, you would not have support for your big day. This did not sit well with the IELTS Medical team - we always want you to feel at your best and most confident when you take any exams after training with us.
The new format for our High Quality NMC OSCE 4 week course
The new format provides you with 5 in person days across 4 weeks. So, you'll have 2 x in-person days at the start of your course featuring your APIE and 6 NMC OSCE skills - currently: Administration of Suppository; De-escalation; Nutritional Assessment; Reminiscence Therapy; Talking Therapies and Physiological Observations (OBS).
We look forward to meeting you and ensuring that you are given the best possible chance to join the NMC register.
