The latest registration figures,published by NHS Education Scotland on 26 February 2007, show that of the 2,817G grade nursing staff who had registered for training as Cleanliness Champions,1,196 have completed the programme.These figures, however, do notprovide the breakdown by speciality necessary to indicate what proportion of thesister/charge nurse workforce this represents.
