Continuous professional development (CPD) is limited in some regions of the UK and within Europe generally. This is compounded for all by limited resources for course fees and the lack of study leave granted away from the clinical area for full-time courses. This is set against recommendations from national and European governments and renal clinical guidelines concerning expectations of CPD and competency levels of renal nurses. In the past renal nurses have been trained in all areas of the speciality by local Schools of Nursing linked to renal units. However, since the formation of Trusts in 1990 education delivery has been ring-fenced and separated from the control of local hospitals by Schools of Nursing being incorporated into Institutes of Higher Education. That has led in some instances to a rationalising of post registration education delivery for some geographical areas. This paper will discuss the development and implementation of a distance learning renal care course taking into consideration the clinical, academic and educational requirements necessary for effective education and training at the post basic level.
在英国的一些地区以及整个欧洲,持续专业发展(CPD)都受到限制。由于课程费用资源有限,且缺乏为参加全日制课程而给予的脱离临床工作区域的学习假期,这对所有人来说更是雪上加霜。这与国家和欧洲政府的建议以及肾脏临床指南中关于CPD期望和肾脏护士能力水平的要求背道而驰。过去,肾脏护士由与肾脏科室相关的当地护理学校在该专业的所有领域进行培训。然而,自1990年信托机构成立以来,教育提供被圈定起来,并因护理学校并入高等教育机构而与当地医院的控制分离。这在某些情况下导致了一些地理区域注册后教育提供的合理化。本文将讨论一个远程学习肾脏护理课程的开发与实施,同时考虑到基础后层面有效教育和培训所需的临床、学术和教育要求。
