Calling nursing and midwifery leaders! Interested in exploring how to create person-centred cultures? Places where people want to work? Check out the comments from one of the previous participants below 👇 Details & application info are available on our website www.fons.org/programmes-d...

"My focus on creating a compassionate, person-centred culture has contributed positively to staff recruitment by making our service a more attractive and supportive place to work. By fostering psychological safety, promoting inclusive leadership and ensuring staff feel valued and listened to, I have helped build a reputation for kindness, stability and professional growth.
The visibility of strong leadership, opportunities for reflective learning and a nurturing environment also support better staff retention, which further enhances recruitment by signalling that people choose to stay. As a result, we are increasingly recognised as a service where staff thrive, feel proud of their work and are supported to deliver high‑quality, person-centred care."

Thanks for your blog @justacarehomeg1.bsky.social - it's a brilliant first-hand description of the range of responsibilities of care home nurses. It's important we draw out, as nurses, the common threads across nursing, valuing all branches and places where people nurse equally
