Shortages in nursing are the single biggest and most urgent workforce issue that the NHS needs to address. This article sets out the early success of the Nurse Clinical Fellowship Programme established by The Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust. The unique programme aims to attract and retain nurses by offering a staff nurse post with supported access to academia, fully funded by the NHS Trust. To date, the Trust has attracted 90 nurses (both UK and international registered nurses) to the programme. The programme is also offered internally and the Trust has a cohort of 10 internal nursing staff enrolled onto the programme completing either their BSc (top-up) or Masters, with a second cohort of 60 internal nurses due to start in September 2019. To support international registered nurses with demonstrating their competence to meet Nursing and Midwifery Council requirements the Trust has also established an objective structured clinical examination preparation course designed to embrace and enhance the existing knowledge and skills, while guiding staff in transferring these in line with UK and Trust policies and practices.
护理人员短缺是英国国家医疗服务体系（NHS）需要解决的最大且最紧迫的劳动力问题。本文阐述了皇家伍尔弗汉普顿国民保健服务信托基金设立的护士临床奖学金计划所取得的初步成功。这个独特的计划旨在通过提供一个有学术支持的护士岗位来吸引和留住护士，该岗位由国民保健服务信托基金全额资助。到目前为止，该信托基金已吸引了90名护士（包括英国和国际注册护士）参与该计划。该计划也在内部提供，信托基金有10名内部护理人员参加该计划，他们正在攻读理学学士（专升本）或硕士学位，另有60名内部护士组成的第二批学员将于2019年9月开始学习。为了支持国际注册护士证明他们有能力满足护理和助产士委员会的要求，该信托基金还设立了一个客观结构化临床考试准备课程，旨在巩固和提升他们现有的知识和技能，同时指导工作人员按照英国和信托基金的政策及实践来运用这些知识和技能。
