Botox

[molemaid]

I am opening a new salon shortly and have been approached by a Nurse Practioner who wants to offer the service in my business. I had considered doing this before but because of the GMC ruling had not pursued it. I have read the other threads on here which discusses Nurse Prescribers so i am not sure of the difference and i want to be sure where i stand before i take it any further, can anyone clarify? Thanks molemaid

If she has a prescribing qualification it means she can prescribe 'Botox' to clients. If she has not then I would give her a wide berth as she may not be practicing within the regulations.
