CPD PIN/AIN Online License Renewal

The National Council of the Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association (GRNMA) at its meeting held on 16th September 2021 deliberated on the challenges members of the Association face in renewing their Professional Identification Numbers (PIN) and Auxiliary Identification Numbers (AIN) annually and the fact that available data has shown that in instances where the clinical practice has resulted in legal tussles, the nurses and midwives concerned have had expired licenses, the National Council resolved as follows:

  1. The GRNMA will renew the licenses of its members on annual basis with effect from the year 2022.
  2. All members are encouraged to download the Nursing and Midwifery Council’s (NMC) Mobile App for uploading Continuous Professional Development (CPD) points and make it a point to upload all their required CPD points achieved within a year.

Conclusion

It is the hope of the President, Mrs. Perpetual Ofori-Ampofo, and the entire National Council that members of GRNMA will cooperate with leadership in this regard and make this HUGE INVESTMENT in GRNMA members worthwhile.
