Nursing and Midwifery Clinical Leadership during Covid-19, Sharing the Learning Webinar Series
In collaborating with colleagues from services during the first wave of Covid-19 in 2020, it was evident that there was significant clinical leadership demonstrated by nurses and midwives, nationally. As the pandemic escalated, it became clear that nurses and midwives should be provided with an opportunity to present their clinical leadership experiences. This would not only enable them to present the significant leadership skills and knowledge demonstrated during this challenging time but would also facilitate shared learning across disciplines and services.
The NCLC in collaboration with the Chief Nursing Office (CNO) and RCSI are delighted to present our webinar series Nursing and Midwifery Clinical Leadership during Covid-19, Sharing the Learning. The series includes representation from the CNO office, ONMSD, midwifery and all disciplines of nursing and all grades of nurses and midwives. It has been a pleasure to work with the colleagues from the CNO and the RCSI on this initiative and it has been an honour to collaborate with all of the panellists who were so committed and dedicated to supporting us with each webinar.
Please note that each webinar was circulated from September 2020 to April 2021 using e mail, social media and the NCLC, CNO and RCSI websites. Webinars can be accessed by clicking on the links below:
