  2. Who am I ? My name is George Matuska I am a Registered Nurse, Learning Disability or RNLD

  3. What do I do ? • I work in a hospital for: • Adults • Who have a learning disability • Who need help with their mental health issues CEDARHOUSE

  4. 2013 Last year I worked for:

  5. Who are Health Education Kent, Surrey and Sussex ? • They ask employers: • how many staff do they need? • What do staff need to learn to do their job • They are a new group of people • There are 13 other groups across England

  6. What do Health Education Kent, Surrey and Sussex do? • They pay schools and university's to train people to become nurses, doctors and other health care staff • They make sure we have enough staff to look after us if we are poorly or need support

  7. They wanted me to find out: Are there enough staff being trained to meet the needs of people who have a learning disability

  8. What we found The Headlines

  9. What we found out about staff: • There are lots more nurses than we thought • Lots of the nurses did not work for the NHS • Nearly half of the nurses could stop working over the next ten years if they wanted to

  10. What we found out about people with learning disabilities:

  11. We know that there will be a small increase in the number of people in Kent, Surrey and Sussex over the next 5 years 2018 2013 The British Institute for Learning Disabilities say this will be the same for people with Learning disabilities

  12. We spoke to people who employed, worked with, or educated staff We called them project stakeholders

  13. Some of the things the stakeholders told us were:

  14. They would like to be involved in education and workforce planning

  15. Some people thought that the main provider of pre registration Learning Disability nurse education was a long way from where some people need it Greenwich University Kingston University Surrey Kent Sussex

  16. It was not clear how providers of care could contact Health Education Kent, Surrey, and Sussex if they needed to

  17. It was difficult to recruit staff on to pre registration nurse training courses that come from Kent, Surrey and Sussex and keep them working there when they finished

  18. If you have any questions please ask them now or come and ask me in the break
