For anyone working/interested in primary care and its workforce, this new paper from Alison Leary &co with The Queen's Nursing Institute Crystal Oldman is a really interesting and important read. The paper considers a workforce impact assessment on general practice nurses (GPNs) due to the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS) (which they were not part of). Issues highlighted and addressed - GPNs experienced: Increased supervising and teaching without additional resources Duplication of work due to complexity of work (which is not recognised) Incomplete care and care left undone Inequitable pay and conditions Less access to developmental opportunities and paid time for learning (this particularly grips me given my PhD in nurses' post-registraiton development) Devaluation of the GPN role More 'rescue' work due to fractured care and taskification. This is a must read, which should be reflected on and taken on board for anyone looking at service (re)design, working practices and workforce planning at a local, regional and national level. #nhs #workforce #research #policy

Workforce/people impact assessment are very rare in the NHS, even when its large scale change. Policy is simply dropped onto frontline from a great height. We did a retrospective one on ARRS.
