Nursing and midwifery

Newly qualified Preceptorship Programme

All Band 5 nurses and midwives new to the NMC register enrol on our Preceptorship Programme when they join the Trust.

This year-long training scheme is designed to guide you through the transition from learner to qualified professional. A peer support or ‘buddy’ system involving experienced colleagues provides guidance as you put your new skills into practice while a series of study days ensures you cover professional issues relevant to a range of clinical specialties.

The training helps you adjust to your new role at the Trust and make the most of your first registered position. It also enables you to achieve the requirements to pass through the Agenda for Change foundation gateways by the end of the year.

We have a number of nursing and midwifery opportunities at the Trust and run two recruitment campaigns each year to support the programme.
