The Queen’s Nursing Institute (QNI) was commissioned by NHS England (NHSE) to develop a set of voluntary standards of education and practice to support nurses new to General Practice Nursing (GPN).
In an environment awash with strategic documents, frameworks, guides, roadmaps and pathways, why do we need a workforce plan for general practice nursing and the healthcare support workforce? Unless we keep general practice nursing at the centre of our workforce reconfigurations we will simply not develop robust enough teams with the necessary skills to bridge the increasing gap between capacity and demand brought on by an ageing workforce, lack of new entrants and increasing workloads.
This document sets out the standards of education and training (SETs). These are the standards against which we assess education and training programmes. A programme which meets the SETs allows a learner who successfully completes that programme to meet the standards of proficiency for their profession. They are then eligible to apply to the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) for registration.
We are pleased to present the Health and Care Professions Council’s standards of proficiency for paramedics. We first published standards of proficiency for paramedics in July 2003. We published revised standards in November 2007.
