Research with care home providers - request for support from NHS BSA

 

Dear Providers

As you know the Workforce Development Fund is shortly to be administered via a new platform. The partnership C&SW had with Skills for Care is coming to an end and from May this year you will need to apply for funding via The NHS Business Services Authority platform

The attached note is asking for your help in developing the new model --- please email Amelia Benson at hi.amelia.benson@nhsbsa.nhs.uk  to join one of their information sessions between April and June.

 Best wishes,

David Smallacombe CE Care and Support West


On behalf of NHS Business Services Authority.

We are testing a brand-new service designed to streamline training reimbursement for care professionals. We want to make claiming money for training simpler and more efficient, so that training becomes more accessible for those on the frontline of care provision.

Based on our previous research, the main users of this new service are likely to be care home managers, finance administrators and learning and development administrators in the adult social care sector.

We are asking people for up to an hour of their time, remotely, to test the service and provide us with feedback. We are offering all testers a £20 gift voucher in return. All data is kept confidential and anonymised.

Attached is the advertisement detailing eligibility and participation details.
