The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) has implemented significant changes to the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE), specifically within the APIE station. This NMC OSCE update is crucial for all candidates currently preparing for their upcoming exam.
Please be informed that 2 scenarios have been officially removed from the APIE station of the NMC OSCE exam.
These changes have reduced the total number of APIE scenarios from 12 to 10. This update streamlines the station, focusing on a more concise set of conditions and situations.

Updated Preparation Guidance
We strongly advise all students to:
1. Remove Asthma and Anxiety & Depression from your APIE preparation.
These conditions are no longer examinable under this station.
2. Refocus your study time on the remaining 10 scenarios.
Deepen your understanding of the remaining 10 scenarios.
For Mentor Merlin students, we have already integrated these changes into the practice sessions and assessments. We are committed to keeping your learning aligned with the latest NMC guidelines so that your time and effort are focused on the right content.
