In 2020, the General Practice Nursing workstream within the Medical Directorate at NES was asked by Scottish Government to undertake a review process of the NES Standards for Education Providers: Cervical Cytology in Clinical Practice (2013). The result of that review process was the production of this revised set of cervical screening education standards. These standards have been updated to reflect the current context. They seek to maintain Scotland’s culture of continuous improvement in cervical screening practice.
