The Nursing and Midwifery Council has begun issuing the new PIN/AIN cards to practitioners. The new Card currently has five-year validity and replaces the card with three-year validity.
Additionally, the new cards feature enhanced security measures that will reduce the likelihood of them being compromised.
The underlying technology for the online payment and PIN/AIN renewal could support greater and greater capabilities for a long time to come.
All cards with the three-year validity will be phased out by March 31, 2021
