Congratulations to the Trust’s Clinical Nurse Tutors who have been named as finalists in the Best Workplace for Learning and Development category at this year’s Nursing Times Work Force Summit & Awards.
This award aims to recognise employers that prioritise learning and development opportunities, using the resources available to them to offer a wide-ranging portfolio of CPD options to nursing and midwifery staff.
The criteria for this category notes that workplace learning and development is about creating the right culture and environment for nursing and midwifery staff to thrive in their role. As well as improving knowledge and skills, it can help to create a more positive working culture and boost employee morale. The Trust’s Clinical Nurse Tutors have done just that!
Since receiving support from our Clinical Nurse Tutors, registered nurses at the Trust have reported the following:
- 30% improvement in clinical skills
- 16% improvement in holistic care
- 15% development in communication
- 15% growth in teamwork
- 13% progression in displaying Trust values
- 11% improvement in wellbeing
98% of these registered nurses recommended working with the Clinical Nurse Tutors.
Team member, Mel Williams said: "We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge how grateful we are for the support and engagement that we have had across the Trust."
The Trust looks forward to the results at the official awards ceremony on Tuesday 21 November at the Hilton London Metropole and we wish our Clinical Nurse Tutors every success.
