1 Since the 1 st April 2009 I have taken up responsibility for practice learning for our educational provision and I look forward to working with clinical colleagues and continuing the successful collaborations with NHS partners and the Private, Voluntary and Independent sector. The quality of the student experience in practice is dependent on so many diverse and challenging factors, and I am sure that through our continued partnerships we can achieve our vision of providing outstanding practice learning opportunities for all our students. Engaging with students as partners is a critical element in developing and enhancing learning in practice. Student evaluation of practice and mentor evaluation of the mentoring experience are important strategies that we will be reviewing. The role of the mentor and the sign-off mentor is a challenging and often undervalued one. Together, with Practice Education Facilitator (PEF) and Placement Development Manager (PDM) colleagues, we can provide learning and teaching environments which will nurture and develop a student nurse who will be fit for practice, purpose and award. Thank you for your ongoing support and contribution to student nurse education. Ros Thomas Practice Learning Officer from the Practice Learning Officer to the School of Nursing, Midwifery and Social Work s Mentors Newsletter. This is my first opportunity in my role as the School s Practice Learning Officer (PLO) to extend our thanks and appreciation to Geraldine Main who, after six years in post, decided that it was time to step down from her role as Director of Quality Assurance and Practice Learning. 1. from the PLO.. 1

2 News From the Practice Learning Officer Pandemic Flu Planning Event A Pandemic Flu Planning event took place on the 14 th July 2009 and was attended by representatives from the NHS North West, the Trusts, and the Greater Manchester Higher Education Institutions. The development of a co-ordinated response to the pandemic swine flu was discussed and planning remains ongoing. Your trust PEF will have details as they become available. Current Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) guidelines regarding students with suspected swine flu are available at Student Practice Assessment Updates to the Pan Manchester Practice Assessment document and the Ongoing Record of Achievement have been made which requires the mentor and sign-off mentor to complete a self-verification statement to confirm that they are on the Trust s Live Register of Mentors and have also attended an annual mentor update. An additional statement has also been added to the induction sheet regarding the Ongoing Record of Achievement document. A further guidance paper regarding the assessment process for students on split placements has been developed for mentors and is available via the Mentor Information web pages 1. from the PLO.. 2

3 News From the Practice Learning Officer The Quality Enhancement Process Document (Practice Learning Environments) It has become apparent that some students and mentors remain unaware of the of the correct process to follow when they have concerns about the learning environment, or if the mentor has concerns regarding student progression. Therefore, please can I ask that you re-visit the Quality Enhancement Process document and follow the processes outlined? We will shortly be reviewing the Quality Enhancement Process document with the intention of making it more user-friendly and self-explanatory. In turn, any comments or suggestions you may have for this review will be greatly welcomed. Reasonable Adjustments in the Practice Learning Environment In collaboration with practice, the School is commissioning a steering group to develop a series of guidance papers for mentors relating to reasonable adjustments in practice learning environments. I will bring you more news on these developments in the next issue of the Mentors Newsletter. 1. from the PLO.. 3

Well done ED! 1. from the PLO.. 8

9 North West Placement Development With the number of healthcare students in practice areas increasing on an almost daily basis, and not all Placement Development Managers (PDM s) yet in post, the Placement Development Network is already embracing new changes to the role and working practices to ensure that every healthcare student secures an appropriate and timely, quality placement where their learning outcomes can be met. Having implemented a new structure across the North West, the Network is now working from three bases, in conjunction with the management team at The Studios in Bolton: The Greater Manchester team are based at Regents House, Stockport. The Cheshire and Mersey team are based at Regatta Place, Liverpool. The Cumbria and Lancashire team are based at Preston Business Park. Recruitment to the PDM posts is continuing and we are pleased to report an increase in interest for these posts from the Allied Health Professions. It is envisaged that all appointments will have been made by the end of September from the PLO.. 9

10 North West (NW) Placement Development Each team now has a primary responsibility for specific professions across the North West, with Greater Manchester being responsible for Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, Speech and Language Therapy, and Dietetics. The Team will also maintain existing links with their partners in nursing and midwifery. The Placement Development Lead in each team will be the primary point of contact for all partners. Linked to a robust communication system, the Lead will ensure that information is disseminated to the most appropriate person in the Network. Obviously our work is pivotal to that being done by the Practice Education Facilitators (PEF s). The interface and communication between PEF s and PDM s will be explored and developed in an Action Group planned for September For any enquiries please contact: Shirley Harrison, Placement Development Lead for Greater Manchester Tel or , or Shirley.Harrison@bolton.nhs.uk Ann Amor, Network Communication Lead Tel or , or Ann.Amor@bolton.nhs.uk 1. from the PLO.. 10
