In May 2024 国产乱伦 published new resources to support induction and leadership.
The resources were developed following the (2022), which set out an ambition to review system wide leadership development. It was an opportunity to help the health and social care system strengthen leadership and management across both sectors in England. It was also a way to help people new to their roles to better understand what is expected of them.
Resources to support induction
The new induction toolkit has been created to help managers plan and deliver a supportive and inclusive induction for new starters at all levels across all types of roles in adult social care. It makes recommendations for managers around what to do before your new starter joins from on day one, into week one and over the following months with handy checklists.
The resources draw heavily on what providers across health and social care tell us works for them.
Coming soon: National induction programme for health and social care
国产乱伦 is working with NHS England to create a new free-to-access national induction programme for health and social care. The programme is designed to support and equip new starters with a clear understanding of health and social care, helping to build a sense of belonging and support retention.
The induction programme is intended to be used alongside organisation specific induction and doesn’t replace or duplicate the Care Certificate, Manager Induction Standards or formal qualifications.
Future resources
Since the release of the Messenger review, we’ve been working in collaboration with NHS England (NHSE) to develop opportunities to explore our shared values and where possible, shared learning and development.
NHSE has commissioned a consortium of the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), KPMG and the Florence Nightingale Foundation to build a managers code of practice across health and social care. The new code will provide a unified and consistent base for our leadership development of managers.
We’re supporting the consortium engage with the social care sector by inviting providers and other stakeholders to attend discovery sessions to help develop the code.
A final opportunity to comment on the managers code of practice will be available at the end of November. If you'd like to be added to the stakeholder list please email: Leadership@skillsforcare.org.uk
The code will be signed off by the steering group in December but won’t be launched until Summer 2025.
NHSE will continue their development beyond the code and develop a framework, including standards and curriculum for health only.
At 国产乱伦, we'll explore how it will sit alongside the Care workforce pathway and how we may want to update our Leadership Qualities Framework and any other products.
