At the University Hospitals of Leicester School of Nursing and Midwifery Practice we will be running four leadership programmes to inspire our junior nurses and midwives to become our future leaders. We will continue with our RCN Clinical Leadership Programme for Ward Managers, we will launch our 2020 cohorts for the Senior Staff Nurse (Band 5) and Deputy Ward Manager Programme and we will be launching a new ‘Inspired to lead’ programme for our nurses recruited from overseas, particularly focusing on the 400 nurses who have come to work in UHL over the last two years.
50 nurses and midwives have been enrolled on this Nightingale Challenge programme.
