Governments news about high numbers of people joining the profession has little impact when we see the high numbers leaving

Between 0.8 and 1% will also leave as a result of being removed from practice by NMC proceedures

We know from surveying our members that 26% of those that receive a No case to answer from the NMC still do not return to practice

Something must change to have a uniformed approach to retention, learning and development rather than just "plugging a leaky sink"
