Abstract
Literature reviews and Department of Health documents establish a clear need for post graduate specialist education to maintain patient safety. Prior to 2017 the Neuroscience degree course in the West Midlands was not sustainable, so through the British Association of Neuroscience Nurses network a relationship with Buckinghamshire New University was established and a new post registration module was developed. Challenges in its creation and delivery included ensuring it met the needs of healthcare professionals from a range of Neuroscience clinical settings and that the course was financially viable for attendees, the National Health Service (NHS) Trust delivering it and the University. As the programme was to be delivered in an NHS setting, at distance from the University it was important that academic support and regulation could still be maintained. These challenges were overcome by utilising local networks, regular review of feedback from the course and through quality assurance of lectures. The course evaluated extremely well after its first run, with staff stating how it would improve the care they provided on return to their clinical areas. Five years on, the programme team felt it would be appropriate to formally evaluate the impact of the course on the students and their practice.
