Case Study: Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust supports nurse revalidation with NHS Employers' ESR

Supporting our nurses and midwives to revalidate using ESR

Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust worked with **NHS Employers** to support 2,690 nurses and midwives through the new NMC revalidation process. The trust needed a way to provide a supportive environment, ensure clear governance, and track progress against KPIs while helping staff meet the three-yearly registration requirements.

**NHS Employers** helped the trust customise the Electronic Staff Record (ESR) self-service appraisal module for revalidation, enabling staff to record evidence, share progress with confirmers, and manage the process electronically. The solution delivered 24/7 access, reporting for managers, and a three-year audit trail; since launch, all nurses and midwives have revalidated successfully, staff reported feeling more valued and supported, and the project won the HPMA ESR national award.
