Unit Development Action Plan:

1.2 A multi-professional approach to the planning and ongoing development of the unit is reflected in the Action Plan and monitored by a Steering Group.

In order to realise the goal of PDU accreditation a 'Unit Development Action Plan' is set out by the Core & Steering Groups. The accreditation precess requires that:

  • Multi-professional collaboration is apparent by regular attendance, minutes and contribution to progress with action plan.

 

  • The Action Plan must detail aims, objectives, milestones, staff responsible (demonstrating multi-professional participation) and include strategies for staff development linked to the achievement of the goals.

 

  • The Action Plan must outline the Unit's further planned developments during the accreditation process.

 

  • The Action Plan must be discussed at regular PDU Steering Group meetings and updated, as necessary.
