PROGRAMME Thank you for agreeing to be a Practice Teacher to a student on the Specialist Community Public Health programme. This programme of education is based upon achievement of the Standards for Proficiency for Specialist Community Public Health Nursing (2004), which underpin the 10 principles of public health nursing within the three specified fields of practice; health visiting, school nursing and occupational health nursing. Students will develop public health practice knowledge and skills in addressing health inequalities with individuals and communities. Students will develop public health leadership skills, responding to policy drivers and health needs assessment in order to effect positive change. This practice-centred programme will be delivered on a 50% taught theory and 50% taught practice basis and is designed to develop a range of generic and specialist public health nursing skills. This will facilitate the development of a responsive and flexible practitioner able to respond to the changing health and social care environment and will provide an appropriate public health nursing workforce for stakeholder organisations and service users. The taught practice component is essential to students’ development and your role is one of Teacher, Mentor and Assessor to ensure that students are able to apply theoretical concepts to practice situations. Practice Teachers/Mentors and Academic Mentors work in partnership to facilitate student development and joint workshops will be of help throughout the year. To reflect the needs of practice, the move of pre-registration nursing to all-graduate entry from September 2012, and the increasing number of students who hold a first degree on entry to the programme, the academic level of the programme will include postgraduate study. From September 2012 the qualification will be offered at both undergraduate level, BSc (Hons), and postgraduate level (PgD) over a 52-week (full time) and 104-week (part time) duration with eligibility to apply to the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) to practice. Students can return within five years to undertake an additional 60-credit dissertation at Level 7 and gain a master’s award. Irrespective of the academic level at which students are studying, students’ practice is assessed at competency level i.e. the achievement of the SCPHN Standards of Proficiency. The programme has been designed to facilitate the development of public health nurses that are fit for practice, fit for purpose, fit for the professional and academic award and can take responsibility for the highest standards of professional conduct and ethical practice.

4 THE CONTEXT OF SPECIALIST COMMUNITY PUBLIC HEALTH NURSING The health and social care services are currently facing demanding policy workforce challenges. The need to produce a fit-for-purpose workforce and to enhance multi-professional working and teamwork is central to all stakeholders’ agendas. The School of Health & Social Care at Teesside University is committed to developing a lead in the development of a multi-professional model of learning and teaching for all health, social care and other related professionals in partnership with key stakeholders. Specialist community public health nursing involves relating and responding to the changing health needs of the public and communities. This means a proactive role in the community and working at a level at which the health needs of a whole community can be planned for. Lifestyle choices which impact on health need to be addressed in a way that facilitates healthy choices by education, structural and policy change. This programme supports the NMC’s strategic approach to develop a nursing workforce with the skills to respond to inequalities in health and work proactively with individuals and community to promote and protect health. This strategic approach is in line with developing a public health workforce and Department of Health (DH) documents such as Fair Society, Healthy Lives (Marmot, 2010), No Health without Mental Health (DH, 2011) Healthy Lives, Healthy People (DH, 2010). “Radically shifting power to local communities, enabling them to improve health throughout people’s lives, reduce inequalities and focus on the needs of the local population”, Healthy Lives, Health People (DH, 2010). This approach to health care provision requires particular knowledge and skills - those of the public health practitioner. Wanless (2004) highlighted the importance of developing the public health workforce and as a response to this the Tripartite Group (The Royal Institute of Public Health and Hygiene, the Faculty of Public Health and the Multidisciplinary Public Health Forum) have developed 10 standards for public

S:\Modularity\Documentation Department\Approval Documentation\Programmes\Specialist Community Public Health Nursing, BSc (Hons), PgD & MSc\Updated

Documentation\2014-15\Practice Teacher - Mentor Handbook.docx 5

health specialists. These 10 standards map onto the broad areas developed as the National Occupational Standards for the Practice of Public Health by Skills for Health (2004) and these are encapsulated within the NMC Standards of Proficiency for Specialist Community Public Health Nurses (2004). Nurses are in an ideal position to contribute positively to the new public health agenda and this programme of education aims to develop individuals who are able to rise to these challenges and work in ways that involve communities and individuals. Specialist community public health nursing is defined by the NMC as aiming to:

“Reduce health inequalities by working with individuals, families, and communities promoting health, preventing ill health and in the protection of health. The emphasis is on partnership working that cuts across disciplinary, professional and organisational boundaries that impact on organised social and political policy to influence the determinants of health and promote the health of whole populations” (www.nmc-uk.org).

For students undertaking the BSc (Hons) SCPHN programmes and the PgD with license to practise in SCPHN, this is a 52-week, full-time programme (104 weeks for part-time students) which is 50% theory and 50% practice. The BSc (Hons) PgD/MSc Specialist Community Public Health Nursing (Health Visiting) is a UNICEF-accredited programme, meeting the UNICEF UK Baby Friendly Initiative University Standards (www.UNCEF.org). The programme facilitates students in gaining the basic knowledge and skills, in collaboration with practice colleagues, to enable them to support breastfeeding effectively when they qualify as Health Visitors. Following successful completion of the PgD SCPHN (all fields) students will have the opportunity to enroll on RMH4014 Evaluating Practice to achieve a full Masters over one academic year for full-time and part-time students. This must be completed within five years of commencing the PgD. For further information please contact the Programme Leader. All students commencing the programme must have an agreement with a health trust/employer to provide a clinical placement and a Practice Teacher for the duration of the programme. The taught component of the programme will be delivered on the main campus, Teesside University, during term times with modules taking place during the morning, afternoon or evening. Students will spend the equivalent of two full days or one full day (if a part-time student at the discretion of their employer) per week in University. They will also spend the equivalent of two full days or one full day (if a part-time student at the discretion of their employer) per week in clinical practice. One day per week (half a day for part-time students) will be allocated for self-directed study. See Appendices 8 and 9 for programme overviews.

There will be a 10-week period (WTE) of consolidated practice in the defined area of practice. During the programme students will also experience 15 days in alternative practice settings which will be negotiated on an individual basis between you, the student and Academic Mentor. The student will keep a Learning Log of such experiences and you will ensure that experiences are planned using Learning

S:\Modularity\Documentation Department\Approval Documentation\Programmes\Specialist Community Public Health Nursing, BSc (Hons), PgD & MSc\Updated

Documentation\2014-15\Practice Teacher - Mentor Handbook.docx 6

Contracts to enable students to understand the context for practice within all community public health settings. The 15 days must be completed before entering consolidation.

You will work closely with students to ensure that experiences are provided within a variety of areas of practice to facilitate the development of transferable skills. These experiences will also be recorded within the Learning Log and mapped against the programme outcomes.

Students will be required to complete timesheets which must be signed by you. Flexibility will be given to enable students, in consultation with yourself, to access the best learning opportunities.

See Appendix 4 for details of BSc (Hons) programme structures and Appendix 5 for details of PgD/MSc programme structures.

4.1 Sickness/Absence Attendance at lectures and seminars across all modules will be monitored, as 100% attendance is required to identify students who are absent and to enable data to be collated by the Student Records. Monitoring will follow the SOHSC Sickness and Absence Reporting Policy.

All absence, whether from taught sessions or practice placement, must be reported to Student Records Office H0.06, 01642 384184 or [email protected]. Sickness/absence will need to be made up and the end of the course and will affect the student’s completion date. Seconded students may require an extension to their contract.

5 LEARNING, TEACHING AND ASSESSMENT STRATEGY The overall aim of the programme is to ensure the quality of the learning experience for all students, so that they are recognised for their academic, professional and personal achievements. Therefore, as well as striving to provide students with access to a curriculum that is contemporary and research-based, the learning and teaching strategy employed addresses the interface of different disciplines. It draws upon the contributions of a range of perspectives, which form the central tenet of the student learning experience. This ensures that the students develop a respect for the knowledge, skills and attitudes of a diversity of disciplines, within a culture that values investigation, research and reflection. The diverse and complex student body which features different backgrounds, discipline expertise, motivation, constraints and preferred learning styles has informed a number of the broad principles that frame the approach taken by the multi-disciplinary programme team, which seeks to:

Promote a progression from teaching to learning, which involves developing the continuum of student independence.

S:\Modularity\Documentation Department\Approval Documentation\Programmes\Specialist Community Public Health Nursing, BSc (Hons), PgD & MSc\Updated

Documentation\2014-15\Practice Teacher - Mentor Handbook.docx 7

Provide a learning environment that encourages student development through active learning.

Develop in students the ability and desire to learn autonomously, with a clear emphasis on using knowledge and developing capability.

Encourage students to reflect on their learning and to become reflective practitioners.

Emphasis on a student-centred approach which incorporates more extensive use of flexible methods of delivery.

Assignment feedback will be individual, written, timely, and appropriate and will offer advice on development issues.

Throughout the duration of the programme the student will work towards achievement of the Standards for Specialist Community Public Health Nursing (NMC, 2004). To facilitate the development of theory and practice, evidenced through the completion of the Practice Progress File, the student will engage in a tripartite relationship with you and their Academic Mentor. The tripartite approach to assessment in practice is outlined below. The Tripartite Approach to Assessment in Practice The student, Practice Teacher and Academic Mentor together form a tripartite relationship within the practice setting to facilitate the integration of the theoretical and competency-based aspects of the programme. This dynamic and collaborative learning relationship is set within the workplace and enables the student to reflect upon practice situations, problems and issues in order to develop a combination of action, reflection and evaluation. This tripartite approach will also be used to assess student learning. The support in practice that this provides is believed to be crucial in enabling the student to achieve the outcomes of the programme by preparing them for professional practice and facilitating reflection in and on action. During the final tripartite meeting the Practice Teacher, in partnership with the Academic Mentor, will judge whether or not the student has achieved the Standards of Proficiency. Summative assessment of progress towards achievement of the Standards of Proficiency will also be undertaken at the end of Term 2 or equivalent point for part-time students. Students must submit their Practice Progress File and Learning Contracts, record of alternative practice, timesheets and tripartite sheets at the final tripartite to their Academic Mentor. Results will be confirmed and published following internal and external moderation and ratified by the Assessment Board. Referral/Re-assessment Students who do not demonstrate achievement of one or more of the standards of proficiencies at a summative assessment point Tripartite (Term 2 and 3 for full-time students and Term 4 and 5 for part-time students, must demonstrate achievement of this standard(s) at the designated point of re-assessment. When reassessment is required a further tripartite will be convened where the student must devise a learning contact and Action Plan with their Academic Mentor and Practice Teacher to address the areas of concern. Normally a period of four weeks is given to enable the student to address the issues and a final tripartite will be held at which the student must demonstrate achievement of the outstanding standards. Failure to do so will

S:\Modularity\Documentation Department\Approval Documentation\Programmes\Specialist Community Public Health Nursing, BSc (Hons), PgD & MSc\Updated

Documentation\2014-15\Practice Teacher - Mentor Handbook.docx 8

lead to the student being removed from practice and await the decision of an assessment board. Third attempt opportunities will not be offered for practice assessments, within a module. 6 THE DIFFERENT ROLES WITHIN THE TRIPARTITE RELATIONSHIP Student The student will be prepared for their practical experience during the theory hours of the modules. The student’s role within the tripartite approach is to take responsibility for their own learning and demonstrate a willingness to develop both academically and in practice. The student will be expected to discuss their own learning needs with you and their Academic Mentor. The student must be willing to undertake honest self-assessment, articulate their learning needs, seek and accept formative feedback from you and their Academic Mentor. The student will need to recognise and appraise their own abilities and limitations. Further to this the student will need to maintain contact with their Academic Mentor and organise tripartite meetings. Practice Teacher You will provide honest, tactful and specific feedback, discussing and recognising the student’s achievements as well as highlighting areas needed for further development. You will provide a patient/client-centred approach to caring in the clinical setting in which learning can be negotiated and facilitated. You will identify and document any ‘cause for concern’, e.g. concerns regarding competence acquisition, or conduct, or unsafe practice, at the earliest possible stage and discuss this with the Academic Mentor who will instigate the ‘cause for concern’ process. Overall, you will facilitate, observe and assess the student’s performance over the continuous period of the programme. In partnership with the Academic Mentor you will judge whether or not the student has achieved the Standards of Proficiency. The Academic Mentor and Field Leader will support you in your role. Academic Mentor The Academic Mentor will fulfil a dual role that also encompasses the Personal Tutor role. The primary role of the Academic Mentor is to give the student and yourself support and guidance as part of the practice experience. They will provide increasingly student-centred educational support both within the academic and practice settings. They will be involved in an initial discussion to clarify the student’s learning needs whilst on placement. They will monitor progress and aid development of theory/practice links and participate in final discussions to verify achievement of the Standards of Proficiency based on discussion with the student and yourself.

S:\Modularity\Documentation Department\Approval Documentation\Programmes\Specialist Community Public Health Nursing, BSc (Hons), PgD & MSc\Updated

Documentation\2014-15\Practice Teacher - Mentor Handbook.docx 9

The Academic Mentor must be approachable and will maintain close liaison with you so that any issues may be clarified and any cause for concern identified at an early stage. They must, together with you, address and document any cause for concern as a matter of urgency in order to arrange an appropriate Action Plan. The Practice Teacher will liaise with the Field Leader as appropriate. The Academic Mentor in conjunction with the Practice Teacher will have an important role in judging whether any remedial action has been successful. The Academic Mentor will, in partnership with you, judge whether or not the Standards of Competency have been achieved.

Following an initial tripartite at the commencement of the programme, one tripartite meeting will be held in the practice area each term (see Practice Progress File for part-time students) to assess the student’s learning needs, agree a programme of workplace learning and assess progression towards achievement of the Standards of Proficiency. The first meeting will focus upon two main areas – the practicalities of learning and teaching and the underpinning philosophy. Subsequent meetings will focus on the student’s overall progress; achievement of competency and the development of capability will be discussed. The student will be expected to utilise reflective skills to evaluate their progress and link their practice and capability development to the evidence base. This Practice Progress File should provide a documentary record illustrating this learning and the achievement of capability within the practice area. Tripartite meetings in the first two terms are part of the formative assessment process, although Term 2 also contains a summative assessment of achievement of specified Standards of Proficiency. The meeting at the end of Term 3 is summative and the student must have achieved the necessary Standards of Proficiency to proceed to consolidation of practice (see Practice Progress File for part-time students). This process involves:

The use of an appropriate model to reflect upon existing competence, knowledge, skills attitudes and values.

An evaluation of strengths and areas for development in relation to the field/NMC Standards for Specialist Community Public Health Nurses. This is designed to enable the student to identify the knowledge and skills they bring into the programme and clarify what they are required to achieve.

Exploration of competency within the tripartite relationship – this should take account of the student’s practice responsibilities, any specialist practice requirements, and practice-specific issues drawn from other modules.

Identification of learning needs in order to achieve competency.

Establishment of a plan or Learning Contract to meet learning needs.

Formative and summative evaluation of progression and achievement of the Standards of Proficiency.

Identification of future learning needs. Additional Student Support

Personal Tutor - each student will be allocated a Personal Tutor at the beginning of their programme; this will normally be the same person who is their Academic Mentor. The role of the Personal Tutor is to provide pastoral support and guidance during the programme. They should arrange to meet with their Personal Tutor at least once a term to discuss their progress and gain feedback on their development.

Email: [email protected] Base: Centuria H2.28 This module prepares specialist community public health nurses (i.e. in Health Visiting or School Nursing) to prescribe from the Community Practitioners’ Formulary. It is undertaken by those students studying health visiting and school nursing and utilises seminars, student-led discussions, learning sets and exposure to supervised prescribing experiences with their Practice Teacher in the student’s practice placement. There will also be periods of self-directed study based upon both the indicative content and an assessment of the student's own learning needs in relation to prescribing. E-learning via the VLE e-learning@tees site will be used as a resource for students to keep a Learning Log of prescribing practice experience from which they will develop a selection of case studies for analysis.
