How and why to write your article and get it published

Stonehouse, DP

Abstract

Within this article the author sets out the basic principles which will assist the aspiring writer to become published author. Areas discussed are why you should write and be published, where to send your article, content and finally the importance of following submission guidelines for authors, set by the individual editor and journal.
Support workers are experts in what they do, bringing a wealth of knowledge, experience and skill to their role. This expertise needs to be recognised and disseminated both within the support worker community and the wider health and social care team of professionals. Support workers have a voice which needs to be heard and writing for publication is one important way this voice can be heard and quality care shared both locally, nationally and internationally.
