Overview




The Gershon Report (2004) states that "freeing up staff from time spent on unproductive tasks could increase public sector outputs considerably". In South East London the five Acute Trust return-to-practice leads were receiving between 100 and 300 enquiries a week from overseas trained nurses requesting supervised practice placements. It was highlighted in the return-to-practice group meeting that most of these nurses were applying to all the Trusts in the sector and that, in the case of at least one applicant, accepting placements on two programmes and then 'trying them out' to see which they preferred.

In the light of this it was agreed that there was a need to coordinate applications across the sector. The vision was seen as a web-based database, accessed from the Workforce Development Commission's (WDC) website by:

- Potential candidates to input their profiles
- Trusts to match profiles to vacancies
- Higher eduation institutions (HEI's) and Trusts to monitor progress of candidates from selection to completion of the programme
- HEI's, Trusts and the WDC to compile a range of reports from information stored on system
