IntroductionNHS Education for Scotland and NHSScotland Library and Knowledge Services are pleased to announce the launch of six new eLearning modules. Originally developed by Health Education England, they have been adapted with permission for an NHSScotland audience.
We would be very grateful for your help to raise awareness of these and have created a range of materials to support ongoing promotion.
All of the modules are accessible on Turas Learn – the page is open access, but you will need to sign in with a Turas account (available to health and care staff in Scotland) to complete the modules and add to your learning record. There are two link options to access the modules:
