PSFHS Nursing Services Education Plan: 2011 and 2012
The Nursing Services Education Plan is based on a needs assessment inclusive of feedback from:
- Shared Decision Making Councils including Unit Practice Councils
- Managers and Directors
- Risk Management
- Infection Control
- Clinical Effectiveness
- Safety Committee
- Nursing Peer Review
- Online Self Assessment by nursing leaders
- Requirements from accrediting and licensing bodies
- New policies, practices and procedures
- High risk, low volume practices
Developed by the Professional Development Council, the plan includes online learning, storyboards, classes and individual teaching methods. Unit Practice Councils have identified unique unit learning needs and shared plans to meet needs.
- Back Class and TB Test
- LEARN Modules
- Specialty Skills Reviews coordinated by UPC’s, clinical nurse specialists and educators
- Unit specific and Group specific skills/education
Additional education and training may occur based on new needs that arise during the year. The details are outlined on the following pages.
