OTHER OPPORTUNITIES
FLYING START NHS:
DEVELOPING CONFIDENT, CAPABLE HEALTH PRACTITIONERS

Are you applying for your first post since registering?

Are you within your first year of practice?
If this is you - did you know that:
NHS Fife supports all first year practitioners from Nursing, Midwifery
and Allied Health Professions (including bank staff), through the Flying
Start NHS Programme.
What is Flying Start?
The Flying Start NHS® programme is a self-directed, web-based development
programme for all newly qualified Nurses, Midwives and Allied Health Professionals
(AHP) working within NHS Scotland, who are in their first year of practice.
Flying Start was produced by NHS Education for Scotland (NES) in 2006 and
developed in line with research findings that confirmed that a period of preceptorship
bridges the theory-practice gap and supports recruitment and retention.
It provides self-directed learning through ten learning units. You select activities most
appropriate to your learning needs and area of work. These are:
Communication
Clinical Skills
Teamwork
Safe Practice
Research for Practice
Equality and Diversity
Policy
Reflective Practice
Continuing Professional Practice
Careers
What are the benefits of Flying Start?
Other newly qualified practitioners have said that it:
o “Provides a flexible structure to support your learning”
o “Builds skills for your future career”
o “Increases confidence in your abilities”
o “Supports interaction with other professionals/disciplines”
What are the expectations within NHS Fife for Flying Start?
There is an expectation within NHS Fife that staff should complete two thirds the
activities as close to the initial twelve month period as possible. The ten learning
units correspond with the Knowledge and Skills Framework (KSF). This provides a
structure against which the newly qualified practitioner (NQP) can formulate their
Personal Development Plan (PDP) and support their progression through the KSF
foundation gateway.
60
What support is available for me?
Every individual is responsible for registering on the website, getting started and
working through the programme, however:



You will be allocated a mentor, who will offer you support, feedback and guidance
during your first year in practice.
The Newly Qualified Practitioner Flying Start ‘Rolling Programme’ is offered
throughout NHS Fife by the Practice & Professional Development Department
(Nursing and Midwifery Practice Education Facilitators and the AHP Practice
Education Lead). These 4 sessions offer you support and guidance about getting
started and progression through Flying Start, as well as putting you in touch with
other practitioners participating in the programme.
To register on this programme discuss with your line manager and contact:
[email protected]
How do I access Flying Start?
