Launched this week by Skills for Care, \u00a0the first undergraduate placement strategy for social care<\/u><\/a>, which has aims to make opportunities for social care placements for every<\/strong> student nurse.<\/p>\n

Providing students with interesting placements in social care will help them enhance their knowledge and clinical skills in a supportive environment. It also supports the development of a better informed, skilled, and person-centred nursing workforce for the future, while encouraging consideration of social care as a potential area of specialist practice.<\/p>\n

In preparation of this, the NMC guidance on registered managers as practice supervisors was updated in 2024 to include registered care home managers<\/strong> as suitable for being practice supervisors, as they are registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in England and follow a process to register as an individual, rather than as an organisation.<\/p>\n

By exposing students to the realities and opportunities in social care, we can build a workforce that is agile, well-rounded, and better prepared to deliver care across the whole system, not just in hospitals, but in communities and people\u2019s homes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
