An opportunity has arisen for a Practice Development Nurse to provide specialty education and training within the clinical environment on Kestrel Ward at The North Wales Adolescent Service.
It is well documented within professional education theory that nurses learn best through experiential methods of seeing and doing which is most effectively achieved within the clinical environment.
