Past activity
We were involved in undertaking a national survey of student nurses from across the UK who are currently studying to register as an RN (Child). This survey was linked to the Shape of Caring consultation and provided evidence to against the call for generic nurse training and the need for high quality education to specifically educate future nurses about caring for children, young people and their families.
The first paper published from this survey and associated work is:
Carter, B., Clarke, D., Crawford, D., Smith, F. (2015) Generic training will not prepare nurses of right calibre to care for children and families. Nursing Children and Young People. 27, 6, 8-9. http://dx.doi.org/10.7748/ncyp.27.6.8.s8 Open access
