B4 School Check (B4SC) two-day training for Registered Nurses

This course is now full. Pease contact B4SC@pinnacle.health.nz if you would like to go on a wait list to attend.

The Ministry of Health has introduced standards for B4SC training, recommending 24 hours of initial training for all new B4SC nurses. The assessments as well as supervised practice makes up for the hours uncounted.

Our training includes:

• pre-requisite reading and observation of at least 2 B4 School checks (4hrs)
• two-day session in-person incl.an open book theory assessment post training (14hrs)
• supervised clinical assessments with your B4SC lead nurse provider at your practice (approx. 6hrs).

Please note the emphasis on attendees having observed B4School checks before the training day to give context to the clinical guidelines covered during the training.

We are committed to providing training that supports B4SC nurses in the Waikato region, to confidently carry out these important and holistic checks and want to remain in line with the Ministry of Health recommendations for best practice.
