Health Education England’s elearning for healthcare (HEE elfh) has worked with NHS England and NHS Improvement, The Queen’s Nursing Institute, Allied Health Professionals and the Department of Health and Social Care, to develop the new Home First, Act Now elearning programme.
The programme supports health and care professionals involved in the discharge process, to act in a way that values patient time and helps facilitate safe and timely discharge from hospital. The elearning programme also aims to increase awareness around Home First Principles in the Discharge Policy.
By completing the sessions, learners will understand the principles of Home First, benefit from first hand case study examples and be able to share best practice.
Home First, Act Now is suitable for a range of health and care professionals including nurses, AHPs, care staff and students across NHS providers, commissioners and social care.
Sessions available as part of the programme include:
- Section 1: The principles of Home First
- Section 2: Working together
- Section 3: Valuing people’s time
- Self assessment questionnaire.
