Nominated individuals, CEOs and other senior leaders play a critical role in the provision of high-quality, person-centred care.
Our networks offer peer support and a safe place for collaboration with other leaders and managers, as well as with key stakeholders.
The information on this page will help you to find a nominated individual (NI) or CEO network near you.
If you have any questions or would like any further information, please contact the listed Skills for Care area team colleague who facilitates the network. The networks are only accessible to services based in the area listed as local and regional priorities and discussions are considered during the meetings.
Our area teams are also happy to signpost you to other support available, even if a network isn’t available near you.
