The development of this online education module provides nurses with another option of having the Fitness to Practise and Incapacity Guideline information as a resource. This module is a resource for nurses in all practice settings to help them understand:
- Fitness to practise and incapacity
- The fitness to practise process
- Professional obligations related to incapacity and fitness to practise
“Fitness to practise” is defined as having the necessary physical and mental health to provide safe, competent, ethical and compassionate nursing services. Nurses are accountable to monitor and maintain their own fitness to practise and professional conduct as outlined in their code of ethics and standards of practice.
