We have been developing learning tools to support nurses and other practitioners in their understanding and duties under the Human Rights and Mental Capacity Acts. We have utilised NCPQSW’s expertise in the field of mental capacity practice and research to develop these high quality learning tools to empower nurses and through collaboration with service users, nursing students, practising nurses and academics, NHS England and the Mental Capacity Forum, we have developed evidence-based learning materials designed to meet the learning needs of practitioners.

At the event, Professor Lee-Ann Fenge, Michael Lyne, Dr Sally Lee, Emily Rosenorn-Lanng and Stevie Corbin-Clarke discussed the toolkit, how it works and the ways that it can help practitioners and there were other speakers at the event discussing recent research and practice issues, as well as opportunities for networking.
