2.5 hour PAM (Patient Activation Measure) Workshop - Virtual
2024-01-17 12:30 - 15:00 (Europe/London)
What is Patient Activation?
It is widely acknowledged that people who have the knowledge, skills and confidence to manage their own health tend to have better health outcomes than those who may have a more passive approach. Patients/clients with high levels of activation usually understand their role in the care process and feel capable of fulfilling that role. People who have low levels of activation however are usually less likely to play an active role in staying healthy. They are less good at seeking help when they need it, at following advice given by healthcare professionals or managing their health when they are no longer being treated.
There are twenty places available per each virtual PAM workshop. To apply for a place please fill out this PAM Application form (PAM Training Application Form – Jan 2024) in full and send to: workforcetraining@activelancashire.org.uk Once you have been registered on a PAM Workshop a confirmation e-mail will be sent to you inc your Zoom Link.

General Practice Telephony - Problem solving and support session

Details
The telephone is still the primary route for many patients to access their GP Practice. Being able to understand call data can help practices make informed decisions on how to improve telephony processes, deliver better patient experience and ease the pressures on practice staff.
This practical, problem solving, support session brings together a panel of experts by experience to help answer your queries.
The session is suitable for practices who are already using cloud-based telephony (CBT), and also those who are in the process of moving from analogue systems onto cloud-based telephony
