Clinical staff development: a two-way solution.
This paper explains how a trust worked with a higher education institution to provide continuing education for clinical staff. The result was a staff development award that carries 60 CATS points at level 2. Evaluation shows that the award has not only helped staff in their practice but has also been cost-effective. In addition there have been benefits in terms of professional development for staff involved in running the programme.
