Returning to the NHS after a long time away I have been asked for an interview and a KBA. Can anybody tell me what the KBA consist of? Or, any practice papers?

"The assessment consists of multi-choice questions relating to patient safety, dignity and privacy in the care setting. Additionally there is a section on medicine and drug calculations for Registered Nurses and a basic maths calculation skills section for Care Support Workers."

Hi Andrew,

This is a description taken from a draft word document dated 2014 by Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust for NHS Professionals. A direct link to this document is here:

I couldn't find any newer references - hopefully someone can confirm whether this format remains the same.

Good luck,

Nigel
