NG Healthcare Staff Handbook

Information & Communication

Communication at NG Healthcare is key. We use a wide variety of channels to communicate with all levels of staff, ensuring you are given the right information at the right time, helping you to do your job. Staff Digital Display In the staff room you will find a large digital screen where you will find general and HR information, announcements, job vacancies and news. Digital Information On each nurse base computer you can access key information such as all policies and procedures relating to HR, the working environment and health and safety. You can also find hard copies of policies and procedures in designated folders along with a copy of the staff handbook. All HR policies and procedures, important forms and the staff handbook can also be found on your careblox portal under the ‘documents’ section. Information via the clocking terminal From time to time additional information is sent out via the clocking terminal. Staff Meetings Morning meetings are held daily with a representative from each unit/service present. If you think there is something that should be raised at this meeting please inform your line manager. Staff meetings are held across the NG Healthcare site; the frequency and format of these will vary according to different Managers - please check on your unit. In addition, Unit Manager and Heads of Service Meetings are held bi-weekly. NG Healthcare News Periodically, a staff and resident newsletter is produced. All staff are encouraged to contribute to the production of this. P a g e | 37 We send communications via text to your personal mobile phone or emails to your personal email address too.
