Abstract
The shortage of general practice nurses is predicted to get worse in the coming years. One way of attracting new nurses to general practice is through education programmes. However, most nursing degrees do not provide enough primary care experience to students and there are barriers to general practice offering placements. South East London Training Hub has aimed to increase the number of placements on offer. The training hub aims to alleviate as much of the extra workload and pressure brought on by hosting a student as possible. This article covers some of the things being trialled, including improving training, simplifying documentation and keeping records. Nurses and managers experience barriers to hosting student nurse placements. South East London Training Hub are trialling a new placement process to overcome these barriers
