Nurses, midwives and health visitors are being encouraged to apply for a bursary grant, worth up to £5,000.

At a time when the quality of healthcare and nursing practice is under tremendous scrutiny, Patients First offers teams in any health and social care setting across the UK, a fantastic opportunity to show how nurses, midwives and health visitors are leading innovation and championing a practice culture where care is the best it can be.
Over a period of 18 months, the Patients First Programme provides:
