London, United Kingdom Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability Full time

Preceptorship programme

Our preceptorship programme is designed for newly qualified nurses and nurse associates. It will support them as they develop their confidence as an autonomous professional, refining their skills, values and behaviours as they work with highly experienced professionals within the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability (RHN) workforce.

Our programme complies with standards set out in the Capital Nurse Pan London Preceptorship Framework (2017) as well as those set by Health Education England (HEE) for preceptorship.

Our programme offers three pathways

Accelerated Preceptorship is for nurses and nursing associates who were recruited during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic and did not have the opportunity to go through a structured transition period. It is also suitable for all internationally recruited nurses. The duration of the programme is six weeks Preceptorship for Newly Qualified Nurses/Nursing Associates is for all newly qualified nurses and nursing associates within the first year of their employment. Duration of the programme is six to nine months. Beyond Preceptorship is for all nurses in 24-36 months of their employment who have transitioned through any of the main preceptorship programmes. This programme seeks to support career development and progression.

Our preceptorship is delivered through classroom based face-to-face sessions, combined with practical experience and assessment in clinical areas and some eLearning modules. The preceptee will have paid protected and supernumerary time to go through the programme successfully.

The content of our preceptorship programme covers two broad areas for safe, effective and fulfilling practice

Clinical Skills and Competency Development and Compliance Essential Domains for Practice
