OTHER OPPORTUNITIES

FLYING START NHS:

DEVELOPING CONFIDENT, CAPABLE HEALTH PRACTITIONERS

Are you applying for your first post since registering?

Are you within your first year of practice?

If this is you - did you know that:NHS Fife supports all first year practitioners from Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Professions (including bank staff), through the Flying Start NHS Programme.

What is Flying Start?The Flying Start NHS® programme is a self-directed, web-based development programme for all newly qualified Nurses, Midwives and Allied Health Professionals (AHP) working within NHS Scotland, who are in their first year of practice.

Flying Start was produced by NHS Education for Scotland (NES) in 2006 and developed in line with research findings that confirmed that a period of preceptorship bridges the theory-practice gap and supports recruitment and retention.

It provides self-directed learning through ten learning units. You select activities most appropriate to your learning needs and area of work. These are:

Communication Equality and DiversityClinical Skills PolicyTeamwork Reflective PracticeSafe Practice Continuing Professional PracticeResearch for Practice Careers

What are the benefits of Flying Start?Other newly qualified practitioners have said that it:

o “Provides a flexible structure to support your learning”o “Builds skills for your future career”o “Increases confidence in your abilities”o “Supports interaction with other professionals/disciplines”

What are the expectations within NHS Fife for Flying Start?There is an expectation within NHS Fife that staff should complete two thirds the activities as close to the initial twelve month period as possible. The ten learning units correspond with the Knowledge and Skills Framework (KSF). This provides a structure against which the newly qualified practitioner (NQP) can formulate their Personal Development Plan (PDP) and support their progression through the KSF foundation gateway.

61

What support is available for me?Every individual is responsible for registering on the website, getting started and working through the programme, however:

You will be allocated a mentor, who will offer you support, feedback and guidance during your first year in practice.

The Newly Qualified Practitioner Flying Start ‘Rolling Programme’ is offered throughout NHS Fife by the Practice & Professional Development Department (Nursing and Midwifery Practice Education Facilitators and the AHP Practice Education Lead). These 4 sessions offer you support and guidance about getting started and progression through Flying Start, as well as putting you in touch with other practitioners participating in the programme.

To register on this programme discuss with your line manager and contact: [email protected]

EXCITING SECONDMENT OPPORTUNITY

If you have well developed skills and experience in working with people who are experiencing homelessness, this could be an exciting career development opportunity for you to develop these skills within the community.

The NHS Fife Intervention Project is a highly innovative 18 month programme to test a new approach to providing services in NHS Scotland hospitals for those patients who are homeless. The project will be managed by Shelter Scotland and is supported by a multi-agency Steering Group led by Fife Council Housing Services and the Fife Health and Social Care Partnership. The key aims of this project are to:

improve working links between health and housing services provide homeless individuals with the right support to improve their health

outcomes reduce the re-admission rates among this cohort evaluate the preventative value of this approach in reducing pressures on

NHS Emergency Departments in Scotland.

The project will employ 2 staff and be run from Victoria NHS Hospital in Kirkcaldy, Fife. There will be close partnership working with hospital staff to engage patients who are identified as having insecure housing. Workers will follow a five-stage process to engage with the patient, undertake an immediate crisis response, work with them to identify key goals, put this into action focused on helping the person to develop skills and resilience, and finally support them to move on.

The project will focus on emergency admissions at VHK and Out of Hours. The target group will be individuals of any age and families who are homeless or at immediate risk of homelessness. This project will be evaluated by Healthcare Improvement Scotland, who will work alongside the staff team in identifying outcomes and learning.

A key aim of this project is to share learning and build capacity with key stakeholders across Fife. Applications are thus being sought from staff in Fife Council Housing Services and NHS Fife who are interested in being seconded to staff the project. Key skills required include: needs assessment; experience of casework or care/support planning & delivery; experience of collaborative working. A significant programme of staff training and development will be a feature of this project.

If you wish to express interest in this opportunity, please contact Belinda Morgan 08444737373, Re-Shaping Care Manager.
