The Red Whale Medically Unexplained Symptoms Course
A significant proportion of patients who present to us will turn out to have symptoms that are medically inexplicable. We all know that there is no magic solution with these patients and sometimes they leave us feeling defeated and not sure what to do. However, there is evidence which can help address the issue. We work through a toolkit of techniques that have been shown to enhance the confidence and skill of doctors and clinicians.
Delivered by our longstanding partners, EPI, this small group course has a different feel and flavour to our topic based Updates and will provide you with 6 CPD credits to help you meet the requirements for appraisals and revalidation.
On the day, registration starts at 9.00am and the course runs from 9.30 to 4.30pm. The course fee includes refreshments throughout the day and a buffet lunch.
This course is designed for all clinicians in primary care, of whatever vintage. GP STs, new GPs, experienced GPs, nurses and other primary care clinical professionals.
- A printed copy of the Medically Unexplained Symptoms Handbook covering the subject more extensively than is possible in the course.
- 12 months subscription to www.gpcpd.com. Home of the GP Update Handbook online. It allows you to capture CPD credits as you read on the site and use it in consultations! It also comes with focused learning activities to earn further CPD credits…at the end of the year you simply upload everything ready for your appraiser.
- A buffet lunch and refreshments throughout the day.
“Very knowledgeable and approachable speaker”
