We understanding how exciting it is for a newly registered practitioner gaining their professional registration is and starting their new role, but how anxious it can be transitioning from student to autonomous practitioner. We have developed The Leeds Preceptorship Programme to help support those newly registered and new to role to thrive at LTHT.

A review undertaken by Health Education England in 2014 claimed that newly qualified nurses and nurses nearing retirement age are likely to leave. ‘Stress and burnout are particularly high in young newly qualified nurses, where turnover rates tend to be high in the first year of qualification. A King’s Fund study reported in The Guardian (Campbell, 2020) reported that the number of nurses and health visitors leaving their posts in hospitals and community services in England during 2019/20 was 28%.

During the period of April 2022 - April 2023 LTHT saw 39% of their band 5's leave LTHT to seek employment elsewhere or leave the nursing profession. The last few years have been challenging, so LTHT has worked with CSU's using NHS preceptorship guidelines to develop The Leeds Preceptorship Programme.

Launch of AHP Preceptorship Standards and Framework

# data[].attributes.body
The NHS England AHP Preceptorship Standards and Framework are aimed at AHPs working across England, providing evidence-based resources to support inclusive access to high quality preceptorship across a range of career transitions. This work is aligned to the Heath and Care Professions Council (HCPC) Principles for Preceptorship which are being published later this week (30tt November) across the United Kingdom for all HCPC registrants. This work by NHS England and the HCPC will be fundamental in standardising the quality of preceptorship support available to AHPs. This will play a key role in ensuring we retain, upskill, and maximise the potential of AHPs, especially in the early years of their career aligned to the NHS England Long Term Workforce Plan, NHS people plan, and AHPS Deliver Strategy.
