Abstract
 | The Single Professional Register and Index of Training (SPRINT-UK) was a database system used to record and maintain information relating to nurses, midwives, health visitors and potential applicants for training who took the relevant examinations. It was both a professional register and an index of training. One of the key functions of SPRINT was public protection. Employers and others were able to check with the United Kingdom Central Council for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting (UKCC) the current registered status of any nurse, midwife and health visitor and their entitlement to practise. This dataset has been selected for preservation to ensure the continuity of the earlier archival deposits of the UKCC's predecessor bodies, which document the development of the registration and regulatory functions governing nurses, midwives and health visitors throughout the UK. |
