      ab: This article describes one learning disability nurse's experience of being seconded to work on a research project in a university setting. The nurse Tracey Rose and her academic manager Irene Tuffrey-Wijne argue that the benefits of such a secondment go beyond the obvious advantages for the nurse, who gained research skills. The delivery of evidence-based care and support is enhanced when learning disability nurses are engaged in research. Creating opportunities for a secondment can support nurses' career progression and may also help promote staff retention. For the academic partner, a close link with clinical practice can keep the research grounded and help to clarify the impact of research on practice. The authors also discuss the challenges in making this type of secondment work.
