Our Homerton Welcome
Our Homerton Welcome runs twice a month on a Monday. It comprises a series of themed talks on different aspects related to working at Homerton, such as Our Purpose and Our People.
There will also be time at the end of the day for new starters to receive their Network logins, NHS email and ESR passwords, and ID badges, so they are set up and ready to begin in their departments.
Managers are reminded of the importance of completing the Local Induction with their new starters, including the online local induction checklist. (See Local Induction section below.)
All new starters, whether bank, substantive, or any other agreement lasting more than one month, should attend the Trust Welcome.
Here is a slide deck of the presentations delivered during the Homerton Welcome.
Homerton Mandatory Training during virtual welcome
When you join the Trust it is expected that you will achieve compliance with your Homerton Mandatory Training (HMT) requirements by the end of your first week. This compliance will be achieved by either providing evidence of prior training, attending virtual sessions on induction as above, or completing online training and assessments.
- Evidence of prior training
- training completed at a different NHS Trust can be used as evidence of compliance with our HMT requirements.
