Devon Care Homes Nursing Education Forum

We are extremely pleased to announce the launch of a special social care clinical education forum.

DCHC has collaborated with Indago Development to bring a series of learning sessions for Registered Nurses and other clinicians working in and with social care. We have long been noting member feedback around the support for Registered Nurses working in our part of the sector and are pleased to be able to offer a solution.

Ann Butts, Clinical Consultant at Indago, will be hosting sessions each month, starting this month on Wednesday 25th June 2025.

We aim to bring together clinicians working in social care in a safe place to learn from subject matter experts and each other. Certificates of attendance and partially populated NMC revalidation reflection sheets will be provided for each session.

Upcoming sessions for 2025 (each session starts at 2pm): 

• 25th June: Introduction to RN forum, leading a team, supportive networks (Click here to join).
