Thank you to everyone who got in touch after our recent update about the HealthTrust Europe (HTE) TWS III Framework!
We’ve had quite a few queries about where to find the specific standards that the framework will follow, so we wanted to make sure you have the details at your fingertips. You can access the full CSTF (Core Skills Training Framework) standards directly here: CSTF Subject Guide.
These guidelines are essential reading for healthcare providers adapting to the new framework, ensuring your candidates are fully compliant with the latest requirements. Importantly, certain key training areas now require practical, hands-on instruction. Here’s where to focus:
- Conflict Resolution (Page 20): This involves practical training for frontline NHS staff who engage directly with the public. Think role-play and interactive scenarios to build real-world skills.
- Fire Safety (Page 24): Hands-on experience is a must, particularly for practising evacuation techniques and using firefighting equipment.
- Moving and Handling (Pages 28-30): Practical instruction is key, especially for staff involved in load handling and patient handling, ensuring everyone is trained to the highest safety standards.
- Resuscitation (Pages 34-36): For clinical staff at Levels 2 and 3, practical “hands-on” simulation training and assessment are strongly recommended to ensure proficiency in life-saving techniques.
These practical components are vital in preparing candidates for the real-world scenarios they’ll face and are now a required element under the HTE TWS III Framework.
If you’ve got specific questions about how this might affect your organisation, we recommend reaching out directly to the relevant framework for the most accurate advice.
