Trainee Nursing Associates
impress Health Education England
SENIOR NHS leaders have been impressed
by nursing associates from across Cheshire and Wirral. Officials from
Health Education England were welcomed by local trainee nursing associates
service users during a recent visit. Senior staff from the region's Hospitals
and the University of Chester explained how the programme had been developed and
tailored so that local nursing associates are able to deliver care that fully
focuses on the individual needs of each patient.
Lived Experience Connectors; volunteers who have experience of local healthcare
services; are playing a key part in nursing associate training. They explained
their role of 'buddying up' with trainees to share their own
experiences and ensure trainees develop an understanding of positive patient
care. Health Education England Chairman Sir Keith Pearson said:- "The
visit has enabled us to meet some local trainee nursing associates and hear how
partnership working is supporting a successful pilot programme. It's been
pleasing to see that the person centred aspect in the initial programme bid has
transferred to the people we've been talking to."
CWP director of nursing, therapies and patient partnership, Avril Devaney, who
is leading the Cheshire and Wirral Partnership Delivery Group, said:-
"It's been great to show Health Education England how person centred we are as a
Trust. Today's visit has been a fantastic opportunity to showcase our good
partnership working across Cheshire and Wirral."
Cheshire and Wirral is 1 of the original 11 pilot sites across England to
pioneer the new nursing associate role with trainees starting in 6 NHS
organisations across the region. Local trainees are working alongside registered
Nurses and other healthcare staff in Hospital wards and community settings,
whilst also receiving thorough support and training from the University of
Chester as part of a 2 year course. Once they have finished their training
and placements, nursing associates working in a range of clinical and community
settings will bridge the gap between care assistants and registered Nurses in a
hands on role that ensures patients receive compassionate, person centred care.
CWP is the lead organisation for the new programme which was introduced earlier
as part of a national initiative to support current Nurses and to provide an
additional route for many to become degree registered Nurses. Wirral Community
NHS Foundation Trust, North West Boroughs Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust,
Warrington and Halton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Wirral University Teaching
Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (WUTH) and East Cheshire NHS Trust are also
supporting Trainee Nursing Associates as part of the pilot.
Southport teenager follows
in Grandmother's fundraising footsteps
A fundraiser from Southport who works
closely with a local cancer research charity has inspired her granddaughter to
hold her 1st ever charity cake sale. 13 year old Isobel Cutts, a pupil at
Greenbank High School, Southport, will hold the cake sale to raise money for
North West Cancer Research, which funds life saving research in the region.
On Sunday, 25 June 2017, Isobel will team up with her grandmother, Olive Cutts,
who heads up the Southport based fundraising group for North West Cancer
Research. Members of the fundraising group will help by baking a variety of
cakes to be sold including lemon Drizzle, chocolate fudge and a range of other
delicious flavours.
A committed Girl Guide, Isobel will hold the cake sale as part of her ambition
to receive the Baden Powell Challenge Award, which is the highest accolade a
Guide can achieve. This is not the 1st time she has joined forces with her
grandmother, this Easter she helped to raise ₤100 for North West Cancer Research
by selling knitted Easter chicks filled with chocolate. Isobel said:-
"I'm really excited for the cake bake on Sunday. Me and my Grandma have been
promoting the event over the past few weeks by giving out posters in the local
area so we hope lots of people will come. My Grandma and the other members
of her fundraising group have helped me out by offering to bake cakes for me to
sell. I want as many cakes as possible so I can raise lots of money for the
charity."
North West Cancer Research has fundraising groups all over the North West who
help the charity continue to fund life saving cancer research. The charity
offers funding to the University of Liverpool and over the next 5 years has
pledged ₤13 million to research. Sara Cooper, Committee Engagement and
Events Executive, North West Cancer Research, said:- "Isobel has put a lot
of work into organising her cake bake event, we hope the sale goes well and that
she manages to sell lots of cakes. She is a great example of a young person
giving up her time to support our charity and we hope others will be encouraged
to follow suit."
The cake sale will take place from 10:30am to 1:00pm, on Sunday, 25 June 2017,
on Isobel's drive at:- 15 Lynton Road, Hillside in Southport.
