Nursing Times Workforce Awards | 28 November 2024 Education Noticeboard

Our Education team attended the ‘Nursing Times Workforce & Summit Awards’ last Thursday. The team was shortlisted for the Nursing Times Workforce Summit and Award in the highly competitive "Best Workplace for Learning and Development" category. Although we did not win, the team had a fantastic night surrounded by other wonderful NHS teams from all over the country. Our team's entry, titled " Know What, Know Where, Know How ", has garnered significant attention as it addresses the issue many healthcare organisations struggle to address, that of how to effectively communicate the extensive range of courses and educational opportunities for both clinical and non- clinical staff.

Mette Laszkiewicz Director of Education

The recognition by the Nursing Times is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and forward-thinking approach of our Education Team. We are proud of this achievement and look forward to the continued impact of our efforts on the professional growth and development of our workforce.

Education Team’s Summary Submission

“SABP provides high quality internal and external education to all clinical and non -clinical staff, thereby enhancing the care we provide to users of our services. If staff don’t know what, where and how to access education courses; providing best education opportunities will have little impact. The Education team introduced a fortnightly magazine style publication that is circulated to all staff. This includes an easy-to-print version for sharing hard copies and a QR code for quick access on mobile devices. This initiative has significantly increased awareness and participation in our educational programmes, upskilling and valuing staff, boosting morale, and ensuring retention.”
