Trainee Nursing Associate Review

TNA provides holistic person centred care and supports nursing staff by bridging the gap between HCA and RGN. TNA recognises limitation of her role and works within the scope of the practice in line with NMC guidelines. Once qualified and registered, NA will become fully accountable professional.

Yes, being exposed to different clinical and community placements helped me to develop my existing skills and gained new skills. I have been very well supported which helped me to achieve desired learning outcomes.

I am most interested in gaining and developing clinical skills although I do recognise the importance of documentation and communication skills. The only disappointment was when our program was temporarily suspended.

It is very well organised and structured. Even learning remotely had been positive experience. It’s been well explained to me and well led.

My employer supported me both in practice and academically.

I have received plenty of support by doing regular reviews on my progress by highlighting my strengths and weaknesses. I have noticed an improvement in myself.

I will be able to take more responsibilities and implement my skills in order to provide individualised, safe and efficient service for my patients in line with work policies and the NMC requirements.

Yes the opportunities are always there. I personally haven’t been involved much but I try to support the events whenever I can.

Yes

I feel privileged to be part of the NHS which welcomes diversity. It is very rewarding to work for this organisation. It provides a lot of opportunities for career development.

Ensure to demonstrate NHS values when working with your patients and colleagues. Treat other people the way you wish to be treated.
