Dermatology focused days have been offered by BBO Training since 2017; we are delighted to be work together with Dermatology Education Partnership Ltd as training providers. The Dermatology Update for Primary Care is particularly relevant for GPs and primary care nurses (and pharmacists) who wish to update knowledge on dermatology care, including evidence-based practice and guidance. You will see the programme moves you through from knowledge and guidance/guidelines updates to patient and practical aspects to then seeing how you can incorporate this knowledge into practice at a local level. The new skills you will learn will enhance patient care and may reduce secondary care referrals. The importance of dermatology care and promotion of skin health is essential in general practice. The Primary Care Dermatology Society states that 10-15% of the primary care workload involves dermatology and that many common skin conditions are managed entirely within the practice setting. This workload continues to increase as on-going changes in funding and the NHS structure move more patient care into the community. Chronic skin conditions have a psychological impact on life and healthy living. Supporting and helping patients with self-management is often the key to treatment success. The Dermatology Update for Primary Care programme is attached together with tear off application slip, which should be returned to me at the above address. The day will be led by Julie Van Onselen, a dermatology adviser, trainer and educator who has 25 years experience as a dermatology nurse practitioner. Frankie Brown will be organising and facilitating the day.

The PAM® can make a valuable contribution to assessing a patient’s ability to self care at any given time. This assessment helps support next steps on what would be needed to increase their levels of knowledge, skills and confidence in order to improve their health and wellbeing outcomes. It can be used to tailor interventions to individual needs, significantly increasing the likelihood that people will adopt behaviours that contribute to better health. It can also help commissioners to make available the kinds of interventions needed, especially for those with low levels of activation who have most to gain.

Learn how to create easy to read accessible person centred profiles for children of all ages and young adults. Course Category Person Centred Planning Inclusion Description Person centred planning is a way of expressing a set of inclusive values through a unique range of tools and techniques. The most easily used approach is called creating a one page plan or a person centred profile. All person centred planning tools and processes are driven by a commitment to achieve inclusive outcomes for the person whose plan it is, and the young people involved are always present throughout their planning session. The focus of all person centred approaches is the whole person irrespective of the label they carry. Two people, a process facilitator and a graphic facilitator, typically facilitate plans. The role of the support service staff in this work is as a facilitator not as an expert participant, problem solver, assessor or provider of consultation. One Page Plans are especially effective tools in planning and supporting children and young people with additional support needs and for through-care planning for young people who are looked after or accommodated. Over time person centred working will reveal areas of unmet need in current provision and thereby inform the ongoing strategic planning within any particular region. Testimonials Be the first… Learning Objectives To Explore the values underpinning person centred working To show how One Page Plans naturally capture young people’s strengths and capacities A demonstration of how person centred planning encourages meaningful consultation and participation with young people (particularly for those who cannot make their views known in typical ways To show how Person Centred Planning leads to the building of stronger parent/school partnerships To indicate how person centred planning can promote multi-agency teamwork and shared responsibilities To increase understanding the how of process and graphic facilitation in person centred work.
