Management Centre was established in 1993 to provide a range of management and
organisational support to health and social care organisations. Since 1993, by
developing a range of innovative, high quality and cost effective products and
services, The Beeches successfully expanded its client base to include many
other public and private sector organisations. On 1st July 2011 the Beeches
Management Centre (BMC) including Nursing, Midwifery and the Centre for
Professional Development Unit transferred to the Business Services Organisation
(BSO). Following the transfer it was further proposed that the Nursing Education
and Development Consortium (NEDC) transfer to the BSO. As set out in the new
governance arrangements and management structure for the new arrangement in the
BSO, it was decided two new units would be formed, one to provide Management and
Organisation Development and the other Clinical Education to Nurses, Midwives
and Allied Health Professionals, to the whole of Health and Social Care Northern
Ireland (HSCNI). Following a period of consultation with staff and other
stakeholders about what the new units should be called the HSC Leadership Centre
and the HSC Clinical Education Centre emerged as clear favourites. Both titles
clearly identifying the nature of each unit and that they are part of the Health
and Social Care Family.
