The RCN UK Nursing Support Workers Committee (formerly the RCN UK Health Practitioner Committee - see below for more information about the name change) represents the thousands of health care assistants, health care support workers, assistant practitioners, nursing associates and trainee nursing associates who are members of the RCN. The committee is made up of the nursing support worker member of Council, the nursing support worker member of the Trade Union Committee, the nursing support worker member of the Professional Nursing Committee and one representative each from Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and the nine English regions.

Through the nursing support worker member of Council the committee can influence RCN policy and strategy on matters relating to health care assistants and assistant practitioners.
