We are delighted that you have been selected to spend your final year with us here in the Community. This will offer you the opportunity to experience all that working in a busy and dynamic Community Trust can offer.

We look forward to working with you all and wish you all the very best for the next year.

The Welcome Guide below (link also to the left in resources section) has been developed to help you settle into your clinical/practice placement with us quickly; ensuring that in those early days with us you can access relevant and important detail to make your allocation with us a success. It is essential that you access this document either before your placement or in the first few days with us. The handbook was developed following consultation with previous students, the mentors and educators in practice and reflects the type of information that they felt to be essential. We hope that you find this resource helpful.

Student Welcome Guide 

You will all be familiar with the new NMC Standards for nurses. Your University will have advised you on their transition arrangements for your programmes. We too are introducing these changes and supporting our staff as they move into the new roles and work to gain the necessary proficiencies to meet the new standards. 

If we can help clarify or advise you in anyway as you prepare to become a registrant, we are on hand and happy to help. Just talk to the Programme Lead or one of the CDFs or email us (email to left of screen)

As you move towards your role as registrants we hope that you will continue to value the reflective process and we encourage you to share your reflective accounts in the final evaluation day. We begin encouraging the use of the Nursing and Midwifery Council Revalidation resources in order that you can be confident in their use and the Revalidation process as you begin your career as a qualified nurse. Three years flies by and why not get a head of the game!
