Confused about the nmc references

[vorvats1]

Hello and good day,

I am starting the process of completing and submitting the documents NMC requires to send to them by post. Among those are the reference letters, to these I would just like to ask a question:

It says that the dates of the referee's supervision of the employee has to coincide with what the applicant puts in the portal. But in my case, I have been working in a hospital for four years, and as such have been reshuffled to different areas to prevent stagnancy. Is it ok if the first referee I put was my nurse supervisor of about a little over a year, and the second referee is the nurse supervisor I had for little over 2 years?

I am just cautious because the guide stated that the dates the referees provided must coincide with the dates I put in their portal, and since the portal requires that I put the dates I was employed in the hospital, the referee's dates and the employment dates certainly don't coincide.

If it seems like a noobish question, I sincerely apologize, I just want to make sure I don't make any mistakes because the shipping fees are hella expensive....

Moved to the Nurse Registration forum

check out the nmc threads

thank you for moving it to the appropriate forum.

I have checked some nmc threads and unfortunately I havent found a solution to my problem yet.

This is my situation: I was employed in a hospital for 4 years, starting 2010. We were all reshuffled to other parts of the hospital around the end of 2011, so in turn we had different nursing supervisors after that.

Since the NMC requires the dates provided by the referee match my employment dates, Im confused as to how to approach the employment reference part of my application because of it, since my supervisors changed almost midway through my employment.

Any advice would be most appreciated...!
