Are you an Advanced Practitioner in any specialty? Then you need to come to this meeting. This is the 3rd year this has been held in Coventry and gives us all a chance to network. Also priced very reasonably so you have no excuses.
Some good speakers lined up talking about:
An Analysis of UK wide advanced practice programmes.
Advancing Nursing in gerontology.
Challenges of Advanced Practice across primary and secondary care.
In the afternoon there are going to be chances to have a chance to review your anatomy of various systems using the state of the the art Surgical Training centre, followed by workshops in writing a publication, presenting a business case and undertaking research.
Come along and help mold the changes we are all making.
Dr Scott Weingart (@emcrit) does his usual brilliant job over at EMCRIT explaining some of the issues in this condition. This is one I have encountered in ITU so I found particularly interesting.
