Abstract

This paper explains how a trust worked with a higher education institution to provide continuing education for clinical staff. The result was a staff development award that carries 60 CATS points at level 2. Evaluation shows that the award has not only helped staff in their practice but has also been cost-effective. In addition there have been benefits in terms of professional development for staff involved in running the programme.

Hospitals' responses to nurse staffing shortages.

Hospitals have used a mix of short-term and long-term strategies to deal with nurse shortages, particularly efforts emphasizing nurse education, competitive compensation, and temporary staff. Interviews with health care leaders from Round Five of the Community Tracking Study indicate that these activities, in conjunction with other factors, have assisted in reducing shortages of hospital nurses. However, hospitals' actions have increased costs and raised concerns about their potential impact on patient care. Additionally, a large degree of doubt exists among hospitals about their ability to meet future nursing needs.
