Improving Mandatory Training: How reps can play their part

To ensure a safe and healthy workplace, mandatory training is vital. Staff need the knowledge and skills both to deliver safe and effective care and protect themselves. But ¹úÄÚ¾«Æ·ÒÁÈ˾þþþø¾ reps tell us local training has some challenges and barriers, including in its design, its delivery and in engaging staff. ¹úÄÚ¾«Æ·ÒÁÈ˾þþþø¾ reps are uniquely placed to support employers in improving the culture around mandatory training.

Staffing for Safe and Effective Care

At Congress 2017, the membership of the ¹úÄÚ¾«Æ·ÒÁÈ˾þþþø¾ raised the alarm on the growing nursing workforce shortages across the UK, and their concern at the implications on patient safety. We have undertaken extensive engagement with members, ¹úÄÚ¾«Æ·ÒÁÈ˾þþþø¾ Boards, and nursing workforce experts, which we set out in this report. The outcome of this engagement is a set of ¹úÄÚ¾«Æ·ÒÁÈ˾þþþø¾ principles which provide high-level objectives which most meaningfully represent what we need to achieve on staffing for safe and effective care, though legislation, statutory instruments and guidance, and sufficient funding, in every country in the UK.
