SGPET Study Days for the multi-professional primary care team
Primary Care is an increasingly multi-professional area as more colleagues work in practices and PCNs to support our patients and all of us are developing our skills beyond our original training. At Somerset General Practice Education Trust want to continue to support the learning needs of all our colleagues working in Primary Care and reflect that we are an increasingly diverse team. You will begin to notice that this will be reflected in our study days.
At the Respiratory Study day there is now going to be a morning event covering the basics of Asthma and COPD for people who may have contact with patients and support them but aren’t actively involved in the management of their asthma and COPD such as HCAs, physiotherapists and health coaches. Basics of Asthma and COPD, 28 Sept 9.00-13.00
In a similar way we are also running a half day programme for Diabetes alongside the main day which will cover core knowledge of Diabetes with two workshops of either foot checks or health and wellbeing and Diabetes. Core Knowledge of Diabetes, Foot Checks & Well Being 19 Oct, 09.00-13.00 These are now bookable via our website and the links above.
Whilst looking at the website you’ll also notice the study days for the year ahead. In Septembers we’ll give an outline programme for these days.
