The aim of the podcast is to explore the role of the Professional Nurse Advocate with regards to workforce wellbeing. The Professional Nurse Advocate (PNA) programme was launched in March 2021 towards the end of the third wave. The ambition by the Chief Nursing Officer is to support the workforce through the implementation of the PNA who can provide restorative supervision. Kyle who has recently undertaken the training gives listeners an overview of the training and provides insight into how the role is being implemented.
