    The “C” Words: Confidence & Competence

    Clinical competency – what is it? How do we achieve it? Whose responsibility is it? Where does the other C word (confidence) come into the equation?  How important is education when trying to achieve the C words? What constitutes a good education? What qualities does a great educator need?  In this episode, Jodie explores this and more with Tracy Brooks, a clinical skills trainer and registered nurse. Also joining Jodie is Marianne from 2M training. Marianne brings together the interlinking skills, qualities and expectations surrounding the C words ( competency + confidence). ----- This podcast is intended to support UK healthcare professionals with information and education.
