This is a 2 day course on 4th and 18th March. Please make sure you are available to attend both days
This comprehensive two-day course serves as an invaluable introduction to menopause care within the primary care setting. Understanding menopause, its effective management, and the ensuing implications for women’s well-being are pivotal aspects for healthcare practitioners, particularly practice nurses who frequently engage with women facing menopausal transitions during their consultations.
As menopausal concerns become increasingly prevalent, the practice nurse’s role in providing informed care is paramount. This course is meticulously designed to cater to diverse healthcare practitioners. It accommodates those who occasionally encounter menopausal patients during their consultations, such as cervical sample takers, as well as those regularly engaging with this demographic but lacking specific training to address pertinent issues or implement effective strategies. By attending, practitioners will enhance their confidence and competence in delivering comprehensive care in these domains.
