The University of Salford are inviting you to take part in an important national study, funded by the General Nursing Council Trust (GNCT) to help shape the future of nursing, and nurse associate student placements in adult social care.
As part of this work, the University have developed a set of draft Standards for Nursing Student Placements in Social Care Learning Environments. These standards have been produced to help social care organisations recognise, prepare, support and sustain placements for nursing students and nursing associate students. We have presented these standards around a model called The CARES framework
You are invited to participate if you are a: Nursing and Midwifery Council Registered Nurse; Nursing Associate or Registered Manager with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in England, or Social Care Wales, or working in, or directly supporting, adult social care in England or Wales through practice, education or policy.
The University would be grateful if you could complete the questionnaire which takes approximately 10 minutes to complete. Your responses will be analysed and used to develop a second-round questionnaire. If you choose to continue participating, you will be invited to review your original ratings alongside the group’s responses before providing your final ratings.
Please note that this questionnaire is not intended for staff working in services that provide care into adult social care settings, such as community nursing, Hospital at Home, virtual wards, GP nursing teams or frailty teams.
Your expertise and experience are invaluable to this work, and we would greatly appreciate your contribution.
