A great reference tool to support excellence in clinical skills

clinicalskills.net supplements the training that trusts provide for their staff. It is a great reference tool, providing staff with an instant up-to-date check on the principles of a particular skill, at the touch of a button. They can even print it out to refer to again later.

Staff are competent at the point where they complete their training, but what about six weeks or three months down the line? That is where clinicalskills.net comes in—it can support those who want to check their practice, make sure they are up to date or refresh their memories.

Trusts can make clinicalskills.net compulsory reading before courses, so that staff get the most out of practical training sessions. CPD staff can use any of the material for in-house training sessions—it can, for example, be projected onto your interactive white board. Printed out, the procedures can be used as hand-outs in training sessions. (It prints very well in black and white.)

Because the procedures are regularly updated, clinicalskills.net supports the work that you have to do to ensure that the trust’s policies and procedures are up to date.

clinicalskills.net helps your efforts to encourage a culture where staff check to make sure that their practice is in line with the latest guidance.

To view our catalogue of procedures, request an online demo by clicking on the button below. We are always ready to hear our clients’ views about clinicalskills.net. You can, for example, request additional procedures if you want something that is not already in our catalogue. This might allow you to save money on other training—one trust said that our forthcoming procedure on The A-G Assessment Tool would allow it to bring its training on this topic in-house and immediately save several thousand pounds.

Trusts are concerned about how they can cope with forthcoming large budget cuts without compromising on the quality of patient care. But it has been pointed out (Yorkshire Clinical Skills Network Conference, 2009) that quality—in the form of excellence in clinical skills—saves money, because it reduces the risk of hospital-acquired infections and improves patient safety. clinicalskills.net can help with this aim because it reinforces the knowledge that your staff need to help reduce the level of health-care associated infections. Avoiding these infections means a shorter stay in hospital and a lower drugs bill—as well as a better experience for patients.
