A REFRESHER course aimed at attracting nurses back into the profession is being held by hospital bosses.
The three-day event, being staged by the South Tees Acute Hospitals NHS Trust, is specifically designed to target registered nurses and midwives who are looking to return to work, as well as nurses working outside the National Health Service.
Topics to be covered during the course, at South Cleveland Hospital, in Middlesbrough, include health and safety, record keeping, infection control, clinical supervision and basic life support.
It takes place on November 27, 28 and 29, and is part of a Government plan to recruit an extra 20,000 nurses by 2004.
