Countdown to 100 per cent Basic Life Support training by Christmas

December 19, 2018

The countdown to achieving 100 per cent Basic Life Support training by Christmas for all patient facing colleagues continues.

  • All managers must review teams’ training information and ensure you have a plan for everyone to become compliant by Christmas
  • If any records appear incorrect, inform the learning and development team at swbh.landd@nhs.net
  • Please ensure your cascade assessors submit registers within 24 hours of training.

Basic life support training is mandatory and therefore anyone who does not complete their training before Christmas will be required to meet with their manager by 11 January to discuss reasons for non-completion and agree a plan to achieve this. Failure to complete the training following this may result in disciplinary action.  Remember the practical assessment is less than 5 minutes and e-learning is only required every 2 years (see the guide here) https://connect2.swbh.nhs.uk/learning-development/mandatory-list/

Check your training is in date here http://trustreports/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fMandatory+Training%2fMandatory+Training+-+Staff+Enquiry

If your training is out of date, attend a session advertised on Connect or contact your local cascade assessor who will complete your assessment.

Note: The practical assessment is no more than 5 minutes.
