We offer a 12-month Accredited Preceptorship Programme supporting newly registered nurses in their first year of practice. It is underpinned by academic evidence of professional learning and reflection, to support competent practice.
CNTW NHS Foundation Trust is committed to the development of all staff, in order to ensure individuals have the necessary knowledge and skills required to deliver a high quality service to patients/service users in its care.
We offer a 12-month Accredited Preceptorship Programme, which focuses on a common approach to preceptorship across the Trust, supporting newly registered nurses in their first year of practice. It is underpinned by academic evidence of professional learning and reflection, to support competent practice.
Each Preceptee has a Preceptor, to support them in Practice. You will be enrolled on to the Accredited Preceptorship Programme which contains two units of academic accreditation,
each of which can be studied at degree level (Level 6) or Master’s level (Level 7).
Part A is designed to support the practitioner in the first 6 months of practice and focuses on generic professional and clinical development aligned to branch specific NMC standards of proficiency.
Part B focuses on the development of foundation core-competence skills, in specialist services in line with Trust priorities, national guidelines and registrant career aspirations.
We offer Peer support as an integral part of the programme, with senior staff offering pastoral care in dedicated roles.
