Public Health Nursing Core Competencies

[Guest guest]

Currently in Tayside we are exploring a standardised set of core

competencies for all grades of the Public Health Nursing Team,

including nursery nurses, staff nurses, senior staff nurses and HV's.

I would be interested to learn if other members of SENATE have been

involved in similar work and to share their experiences.
