Multi-Professional Preceptorship in Cumbria

A 'Learning Matters' awards 2017 Case Study.

Preceptorship had not been a priority for the organisation and staff from across all care groups reported that provision of appropriate professional and clinical support was variable.

Following a successful bid from Health Education England (HEE) working across the North West to support a 12 month fixed term project for workforce retention, support and enhancement, a project team was established to review current practice and develop a robust multi-professional preceptorship framework for Cumbria Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (CPFT).
