    Journal: Nurs Times; ; 102(30):34-5. PubMed ID: 16903305.
    Abstract:
    The Department of Health's strategies to combat staff shortages and an ageing workforce have now turned their focus to the delivery of patient care by HCAs. This article describes how a trust redesigned the role of HCAs and implemented a study day in order to enhance both theoretical knowledge and clinical practice for this role.
