Speaking up is an act of care—not only for our patients, but also for our colleagues, teams and ourselves. This interactive CPD session explores why raising concerns can feel difficult, particularly for internationally educated nurses navigating culture, hierarchy and belonging in the UK healthcare system. Together, we will examine practical strategies for speaking up with confidence, professionalism, and compassion, while protecting our wellbeing and supporting a positive workplace culture.
This session is designed specifically for nurses of Indian origin working in the UK and will provide a safe space for reflection, discussion and learning.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the professional importance of speaking up
- Recognise common barriers to raising concerns
- Identify appropriate routes and sources of support
- Develop practical skills to challenge and raise concerns respectfully and effectively.
- Build personal confidence and resilience
- Commit to action in creating a culture of safety & learning
