In nursing and midwifery, education and practice development are inextricably linked. Whilst practice development is provided largely by Oxford University Hospitals, education is provided both by the Trust and by education partners.
Welcome
Amara Collins-Oke, Director of Non-medical Education
Welcome to Education and the Development of Practice Excellence.
As Director of Non-medical Education, I work with a team of highly motivated and passionate individuals that support predominantly non-medical education across the Trust.
Education and the development of practice excellence is integral to the Trust's 'ambition to be at the heart of an innovative academic health science system, working in partnership locally, nationally and internationally to deliver excellence and value in patient care, teaching and research within a culture of compassion and integrity'.
Within the Directorate of the Chief Nursing Officer, our team provides a lead in supporting, coordinating and delivering a range of education provision. This personal and professional development for both clinical and non-clinical staff provides a commitment to ensure the delivery of safe and compassionate care.
We will be doing this through the development of innovative learning solutions, adoption technology-enhanced learning, increasing opportunities to promote effective team work, and a focus on supporting learning in the workplace.
This is an exciting time for the Trust, and for staff seeking opportunities and support to progress their careers.
