A safe learning environment
The Worcestershire Acute Hospitals Trust is a proud signatory of the Safe Learning Environment Charter, and at the Undergraduate Academy we aim to embody and uphold the charter in all our teaching.
“The Safe Learning Environment Charter supports the development of positive safety cultures and continuous learning across all learning environments in the NHS. It is underpinned by principles of equality, diversity, and inclusion. ... The Charter sets out the supportive learning environment required to allow learners to become well-rounded professionals with the right skills and knowledge to provide safe and compassionate care of the highest quality.”
