Staff induction packs

NHS Employers wants to support trusts in ensuring their staff feel they are a crucial and valued part of a team.

Following the success of the junior doctors' induction packs 'Welcome to the medical team', NHS Employers has produced a set of induction packs for new starters in the NHS for each of the other career groups - nurses and midwives, allied health professionals, clinical support workers, healthcare scientists, ambulance service staff, wider healthcare team, health informatics and managers.

The welcome packs are a national resource intended to supplement inductions carried out by local NHS trusts. The packs give new employees an introduction to the NHS, some insight into what their working days will involve as well as vital signposting to information on important issues such as career development, pay and benefits and staff well-being. Each induction pack covers the following areas:

• Your employer
• Your working life
• Your career
• Key contacts
• Glossary

These packs are free of charge to all NHS organisations. To order please email nhscareers@nhsemployers.org, detailing the name of the pack, quantity required and full delivery details.

Please note that the junior doctors' induction packs are printed and sent to all Deaneries every August for the new intake of junior doctors. They are not available to order but can be downloaded via the link on the right-hand side.
