The education funding reforms, which came into force in 2017, unlocked the cap which constrained the number of pre-registration nursing, midwifery and allied health profession training places allowing more students to gain access to nurse degree training courses.<\/p>
<\/p>
Health Education Institutes (HEIs) are autonomous private institutions and are responsible for setting the number of training places they offer. It is for HEIs to work as part of their local health economy to secure training places.<\/p>
The Department does not hold information on the level of pre-registration undergraduate nursing places filled at individual HEIs, compared with the number of places they made available in the given period.<\/p>
The Office for Students publishes annual data on the number of entrants onto pre-registration nursing undergraduate nursing courses broken down by individual HEIs. Higher Education Students Early Statistics have published the 2018/19 data, which is available at the following link:<\/p>

A cross stakeholder quality risk profile (QRP) assessment will be undertaken where relevant parties, including the CQC, NHS England and NHS Improvement, the provider and clinical commissioning group (CCG) would meet to discuss the risks via an assessment tool and discuss them to identify any required action as a consequence.<\/p> As part of that process, there would be clear discussion regarding the areas that led to inadequate ratings and how they relate to patients in the care of that specific facility. A decision would then be taken as to whether there is enough assurance that current actions will address the concerns or whether the level of assurance is such that escalation to a single item quality surveillance group (QSG) or a risk summit with the provider is required.<\/p> As part of this process, there would be discussions around actions required and whether it would be appropriate to provide additional support to facilities in terms of additional staff and specialist staff. An individual assessment would be undertaken of patients including their capacity and ability to consent to any continuation of their care or movement of care.<\/p> If it is determined that the appropriate action is to close the inpatient facility and any patient is to be moved, there would be whole system coordination by NHS England, CCGs, the CQC and the provider, whereby information from the individual risk assessment would inform prioritisation for the move. In terms of guidance given to other stakeholders on these processes there is a Standard Operating Procedure along with guidance on risk summits and QSGs. These are available at the following links:<\/p> https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/risk-summit-guidance-july-2017.pdf<\/a><\/p>
