All sessions will have a focus on practical tips and information for use in consultations. These will be delivered via presentations on the latest research, interactive multidisciplinary case studies and panel Q &A sessions. Please bring along your questions.
Many women suffering from incontinence and vulval irritation don’t tell their GP or even realise they could be helped. Learn what both GPs and Practice Nurses can do to help with these conditions.
ASD/ADHD are diagnosed frequently these days; for many health professionals, these conditions weren’t covered in training. On the day you will hear about how to screen for these conditions, how to deal with ‘I think my child has ASD/ADHD’, who is available locally to refer to and how best to apply to the NDIS when needed.
