Unity 28-Day Challenge comes to an end – time to complete your checklist

May 29, 2019

Thank you to everyone who took part in the 28-Day Challenge, which came to an end on Sunday. Hopefully you found it an enjoyable experience and were able to increase your knowledge of Unity through completing a series of bite-sized tasks.

It was good to see so many people getting involved, supporting each other and working together as a team. Plenty of you regularly practised on the Play System and, as a result, should now be more familiar with how Unity works and will fit into your clinical role.

Having finished the 28-Day Challenge it’s important for everyone to complete the relevant ‘Unity – It’s all about U’ checklist, which outlines the core requirements for using the system in your role. You can do this through Connect.

Please answer the questions honestly. Nobody’s trying to catch you out and there’s nothing wrong with not knowing how to do something. Filling in the checklist will simply show your manager where you are with Unity and help them to identify any support you might need to ensure you’re up to speed with the system.

Although the 28-Day Challenge is over, there’s nothing to stop you from repeating the challenges over the coming weeks and months. As always, the more work you put in the easier you will find it once Unity goes live. The Play System is a good place to start but please be aware that it’s out of action this week for planned maintenance. It should be available again from Monday 3 June.
