Practice Educators Group

The Practice Educators Subgroup is to provide a forum for collaboration and the sharing of lessons and outcomes for the benefit of stakeholders within the Network and beyond, to improve patient and staff experience.

The continued education of our critical care nurses is an important component of the successful delivery of Adult Critical Care Services within Provider Trusts.
