"Watch one, do one, teach one"!
In this we agree, the reason I posted the topic was because I had been asked by someone in another Trust if there was a policy dictating that we have to train in this way. Getting the medical trainers in from companies to train staff to be trainers is frustrating, and time consuiming and often leads to no one training others anyway! In the Red Cross - we did train the trainer - we got trained once and then trained others, and in that could assess people to go on to train other staff! It worked! BUT sadly we are hemmed in by the guidelines and policies that our employer dictates, and as such we have to work within them. As for the comments about degrees - hmmm!
