Review : A model for implementing the "Scope of Professional Practice"

Melanie Chippendale

Helen Gardner

{blacksquare} Safe and effective administration of intravenous therapy to children is essential.

{blacksquare} The training, education and assessment (TEA) programme aimed to integrate the essence of the Scope of Professional Practice with a competency based approach to teaching and assessing essential skills.

{blacksquare} The TEA programme was developed to reflect the Scope of Professional Practice, individual accountability, and current best evidence.

{blacksquare} A significant part of the programme is the development of an innovative assessment document providing individuals with documented evidence of related knowledge and skills which can form part of their Professional Portfolio.

{blacksquare} The TEA programme has been implemented within the trust in line with trust clinical governance strategy.

{blacksquare} The framework for implementing this programme has also been used for developing TEA for other expanded roles within the trust.

{blacksquare} Further comprehensive evaluation of the programme through areas such as audit of practice and clinical incidence analysis is needed.

{blacksquare} Further research to broaden the evidence base for practice is also needed. These will be initiated through established clinical governance frameworks.
