This week we have held another induction for new nurses. More than 40 attended and will be joining our wards and departments on Monday.

CHFT Weekly went along to talk to them:

Anne Tywo, previously from East Lancashire said she could already feel how friendly the Trust was. She said: “I decided to move from East Lancashire as I had heard a lot about the Trust. It is a very friendly place where I already feel involved."

Catherine Norton and Sarah Barnes both recently moved to the area agreed that all the staff have been very welcoming. Catherine, said “I recently moved into the area; however it was the variety of departments and opportunities that appealed to me when I applied to CHFT”

Sarah added “It’s been a great first few days and I am ready to get started”

Practice Learning Facilitator, Renee Comerford, said: “It's a pleasure to get our new nurses together for this important week at the start of their CHFT careers and we hope they enjoy them, long into the future."
