It was a hugely successful first NW AHP network meeting, driven by the needs of AHP’s. Nurses from both Wigan and Liverpool had voiced the need for communication with other hospitals, their main reason and drive for this is to be able to standardise education and training, but also to be able to share practices, protocols, any struggles and to develop their departments.
We had facilitated and helped with the set-up of the successful SW network meeting and wanted to duplicate this to help across the country too.
We had nurses, radiographers and physiologists present, all with an interest in education.
They decided on their preferred communication platform and they now have the contacts to be able to visit other labs, share protocols and drive education together!
