QNI βanticipating changeβ to digital badge scheme for general practice ANPs
This isnβt going away ! Still no move from @NHSEngland to address the unfair implementation of the β voluntaryβ digital badge scheme which has become a requirement for most primary care jobs.
Thank you @alisonleary1 @CrystalOldman for your support .
Change needed is overdue.
