Nursing associates should possess a high level of commitment to their role. The role is highly demanding, and a commitment to patients and populations is the foundation of what healthcare and social care professionals do. Alongside this, a commitment to colleagues through a unified direction to uphold quality care. Working in teams can be challenging, but teams need a commitment to work together across disciplines in order to reach an integrated goal.

The public expectation is that healthcare and social care professionals can be relied on, trusted to do the right thing. Upholding professional standards and conduct outside of the workplace, being role models and maintaining one’s own health and well‐being all require a high degree of commitment. Alongside this, nursing associates must also demonstrate a commitment to the profession, upholding the many aspects of The Code (2018b).
