A common core curriculum for nurses, midwives and health visitors.
This article puts forward an argument for the content of a Common Foundation Programme, as described in the United Kingdom Central Council for Nursing Midwifery and Health Visiting (UKCC) document 'Project 2000-A New Preparation for Practice', published in May 1986. By using Lawton's (1983) Cultural Analysis approach to curriculum design, the content suggested would meet the competencies for a first level nurse as laid down in the Nurses, Midwives and Health Visitors Act of 1979 and the changing health needs of our society.
