Abstract
A consistent specialty induction framework within the acute care hospital facility is essential to the development of both generic and specialty knowledge and skills that transfer to different domains. Providing a structured and progressive learning pathway with accessible resources applicable to the context in which learning is applied supports cross-specialty demands in clinical practice today. A broad consultative process among stakeholders at the facility is essential so that patient governance and human capital investment are collectively monitored and evaluated. This article describes the structure, content and delivery of a 6-week novice nurse surgical induction programme using a newly implemented knowledge and skills framework. While the programme is conducted at a tertiary referral hospital in Sydney, Australia, the subject is transferable to other countries.
