Keeping Nurses at the Forefront: Training and Support at A24Group

Nurses in the UK play a vital role in the healthcare system, delivering exceptional care to patients across various settings. To ensure they stay at the top of their game, a robust system of training and support is crucial. Here's how the A24Group, an ethical recruitment agency with a focus on medical staffing, prioritises nurse development. 

A Strong Foundation: Initial Training and Specialization 

The journey begins with a solid foundation. Nurses typically complete either a three-year undergraduate program or a two-year fast-track option for graduates. These programs combine theoretical knowledge with practical experience, giving nurses a well-rounded understanding of patient care. 

Furthermore, nurses can specialize in specific areas like mental health, children's nursing, or community nursing through additional education and training. This allows them to develop expertise in their chosen field and provide even better care to patients with specific needs. 

Lifelong Learning: Continuing Professional Development (CPD) 

The learning doesn't stop after initial training. Nurses are required to undergo regular mandatory training in areas like safeguarding adults and children, infection control, and basic life support. This ensures they stay updated on best practices and can provide safe, effective care. 

Beyond Mandatory Training: Investing in Skill Development 

The A24Group recognizes the importance of continuous learning beyond the mandatory requirements. We offer access to a comprehensive online training platform with courses tailored to various nursing specializations. Whether you're a registered nurse or a midwife, you can explore a wide range of topics and update your skillset. 

Furthermore, A24Group supports your Revalidation with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). Revalidation is a process that ensures nurses maintain their competence and fitness to practice. We help you gather evidence for your CPD activities, including feedback from performance appraisals, patients, and mandatory training sessions. 

Supportive Environment: Mentorship and Professional Associations 

A supportive work environment is crucial for nurses' well-being and professional development. While some healthcare organizations provide mentorship programs for newly qualified nurses, A24Group offers dedicated 24/7 support. Our team is always available for bookings, inquiries, and assistance, ensuring you never feel alone on the job. 

For broader support and networking opportunities, nurses can connect with professional associations like the Royal College of Nursing (RCN). These organizations provide valuable resources, career guidance, and a chance to connect with colleagues facing similar situations.
