Description

There are regular requests for NHS Improvement and NHS England to identify suitable candidates for lead posts in infection prevention and control (IPC) teams. Building on the success of the Executive Director of Infection Prevention and Control programme we would like to offer leadership development to the next generation of IPC leads who are often have robust clinical experience but do not have access to leadership development courses.
The programme will focus on the development of leadership skills for the next generation team leaders but will not provide clinical or specialist skills for infection prevention and control.
The development programme will prepare individuals for their next step in IPC leadership by raising their knowledge and experience of leadership methodology and styles.
Eligible participants will have completed a recognised IPC post registration qualification, be working at band 7-8a or be a designated deputy lead nurse at a higher band or equivalent (or other registered professional). They will have been identified by the Chief Nurse/Medical Director/Director of Infection Prevention and Control as being aspirant leader of an IPC team, these posts are variable and constitute a wide range of structures.
Educated to a minimum of degree level study (or equivalent experience) with a minimum of five years post registration experience in healthcare. Delegates will be from NHS Providers (Acute, Community, Mental Health, Ambulance Trusts and Clinical Commissioning Groups).

The development programme will prepare individuals for their next step in IPC leadership by raising their knowledge and experience of leadership methodology and styles.
