Facilitator and Clinical Lead Training

A clinical lead and at least two facilitators will be trained in each organisation. The clinical leads and facilitators have slightly different roles, but they both attend the same training.

This training is spread over two Days. Day 1 training takes place first and then Day 2 takes place after a few months after gaining experience of facilitating at least three Schwartz Rounds.

Day 1 – includes an introduction to Rounds, topic generation, panel preparation, facilitation skills, and a live Round
Day 2 – includes ideas for sustainability, advanced facilitation skills, and further panel preparation skills

Experience suggests that Schwartz Rounds are more likely to be embedded successfully in organisations with more trained facilitators.

Online training – Covid-19

As a result of restrictions on face-to-face meetings due to Covid-19, we are running an online version of Schwartz facilitator training instead. We hope to resume face-to-face training in the near future.
