Foreword

On behalf of the Centre of Nurse and Midwifery Education (CNME) Mayo/Roscommon team we are

delighted to present the Diary of Learning Events (DOLE) for September 2019 to January 2020. The

CNME supports the delivery of education in counties Mayo and Roscommon and is committed to

providing educational excellence.

This DOLE has been developed in accordance with all stakeholders’ identified learning needs, resources

available to the CNME and is aligned with local, regional and national requirements. This year we are

pleased to provide a number of new programmes. In developing these we have endeavoured to reflect

the ethos of Sláintecare with a focus on community and integrated care across the lifespan. All

programmes/learning events facilitated by the CNME have received Nursing and Midwifery Board of

Ireland (NMBI) Category 1 approval and allocated Continuing Education Units (CEUs). The CNME

supports nurses and midwives in the provision of education to enable quality, safe patient/client care

delivery.

The CNME staff is very fortunate to work with so many dedicated and energetic people across the public

and voluntary sectors, all committed to the development and implementation of innovative education

programmes for nurses and midwives. We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge and thank

members of the multidisciplinary team, locally, regionally and nationally for their commitment and on-

going support. Particular thanks to the Board of Management and to those clinical experts who support

the delivery of quality educational programmes throughout the year.

The CNME team look forward to continuing to build collaborative partnerships and new ways of working

as we progress local, regional and national education agendas for the professions of nursing and

midwifery.

Finally, I would like to thank the CNME team (listed below) for their on-going support and dedication for

Nurse and Midwifery Education in Mayo and Roscommon.

DISCLAIMER FOR THE PROVISION OF EDUCATION / TRAINING BY CENTRES

OF NURSE & MIWIFERY EDUCATION

Dear Director,

You may be aware that my office has sought clarification around a number of issues relating to the area of

education/training provision by the HSE/voluntary organisations to healthcare staff employed in the private sector.

In this regard the Director of the State Claims Agency has confirmed that the Clinical Indemnity Scheme will

indemnify the HSE in circumstances where it has provided education to a staff member employed in the private

sector and where there is an allegation, arising in the context of a claim in negligence for personal injuries, that

such educational advice contributed to or caused the occurrence of the personal injury.

On the advice of the State Claims Agency separate legal advice was sought by the ONMSD in relation to

limiting potential liability to the HSE. The attached disclaimer for the provision of education/training by the CNMEs

applies to nurses, midwives and other healthcare staff who are engaged in a clinical environment whether public and

/or private.

The disclaimer should form a fundamental part of the terms and conditions upon which the HSE provides the

education/training. The disclaimer has been drafted so as to make clear that the education/training programmes have

an educational purpose and are designed to supplement (and not replace) the professional responsibilities of every

nurse and midwife.

It is not required to be signed by participants; however it is necessary to ensure that it is communicated

clearly in respect of all education/training programmes. If a person disagrees with the disclaimer being a term and

condition of the education/training programme, then it should be explained to the individual that the disclaimer

is non –negotiable.

It should also be noted that the HSE does not have statutory power to charge its employees, agency nurses, practice

nurses or other individuals in respect of education/training programmes provided to those individuals. Accordingly

a risk exists that any charges applied by the HSE in this regard are beyond its powers and thus, may be liable to

be repaid. Therefore any CNME (HSE) which has imposed charges for education/training provision must now

discontinue this practice.

Thank you for your ongoing support and please do not hesitate to contact my office if you require further

clarification.

Yours Sincerely,

Dr Michael Shannon

Nursing& Midwifery Services Director

Assistant National Director,

Clinical Strategy & Programmes Directorate, Health Service Executive

Adjunct Professor, UCD School of Nursing and Midwifery and Health Systems
