Written by admin on Friday 10th July 2020

Book a place on the new eWorkshops running on a variety of dates from July to September

 

The Hampshire and Isle of Wight CPPE Tutors are unable to offer face to face training at the moment due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As an alternative to this the following eWorkshops are available to book over the coming months:


COPD

This learning programme aims to enable you to interpret and apply clinical guidance to support people living with COPD. You will consider how to optimise their treatment and use a person-centred approach to empower people living with COPD to self-manage their condition.

On completion of all aspects of this learning programme you should be able to:

  • identify ‘red flag’ signs and symptoms presenting in people living with COPD, who may require referral to another healthcare professional
  • create a list of local resources to enable you to support and signpost people living with COPD
  • discuss the options for the management of breathlessness and anxiety for people living with more advanced disease
  • interpret clinical guidance and apply it in practice to support the optimisation of therapy for people living with COPD
  • support people to self-manage their COPD while demonstrating a person-centred approach.

Deprescribing

In this programme, we will explore how all pharmacy professionals can contribute towards safe and appropriate deprescribing of medicines.

On completion of all aspects of this learning programme you should be able to:

  • recognise a person-centred approach to deprescribing that considers the patient’s perspective and experiences
  • explain the importance of a collaborative approach involving the patient and the multidisciplinary team in the deprescribing process
  • apply a stepwise approach to the process of deprescribing from identification through to reducing or stopping a medicine
  • model their learning to real-life examples from their practice.

CPPE would like to thank you for all you are doing in your roles during the pandemic. They look forward to when they can see you all again face to face. But until  then ask that you take care of yourselves and your teams.
