Foundation Coaching Skills
Training Course | Medway NHS Foundation Trust
This workshop imparts the essential skills required for being an effective coach and using these skills when line managing and developing direct reports. This is a practical course; where the delegates will be given and minimum of two opportunities to micro-coach and receive feedback on their practise by a trained coach. We explore the dichotomy of leaving choice and responsibility with the coachee and the line manager’s requirement to set and maintain standards. We also work through the sometimes challenging issue of coaching being seen as a remedial intervention; put in place by a senior. We look at how we manage those expectations whilst still being able to coach ethically.

We then finish by looking at the induction process.

3 Day developmental programme for Band 6 Nurses
Training Course | Medway NHS Foundation Trust
This programme is designed to help the Band 6 Critical Nurses fulfil their role as junior sisters on the Unit and therefore we aim to equip them with tools and models that will create insight into their inner world and to consider the impact on their teams. Additionally we look at how to manage the dynamics of a diverse team; each with their own inner world. We consider the multitudinous standards within which they must operate and maintain and how to balance these with the needs of the service; their direct reports and line managers. We also spent time on coaching skills and the ability to present information clearly.
