Principles of Nursing
The Royal College of Nursing, Nursing and Midwifery Council and Department of Health published eight Principles of Nursing Practice in November 2010. You can read them here: www.rcn.org.uk/nursingprinciples
The principles tell you what you should expect from all members of the nursing team, including health care assistants, who come to your home or care for you in the community.
