Correspondence Management Workshop - Level 3

Workshop Objective
This aims to equip operational administrative staff to safely and efficiently take actions where appropriate, and which may include forwarding correspondence to another member of the team, or passing letters to a GP for action if a clinical decision is required. It is a more advanced task than document processing or coding alone.
It requires support staff to have the requisite skills and confidence to consistently make safe and informed decisions about how to code a letter and its contents in the patient record, how to use an approved protocol for deciding which letters need to be sent to a GP and with what level of urgency, and when to ask for help.

AIM – Level 3
By the end of this workshop delegates will have both consolidated their learning from previous workshops and also grown their understanding of the importance, for patient safety ,of both working to protocols and learning from experience. Delegates will not only have time to learn, share and reflect but will also develop a personal action plan and some simple templates
Level 3 incorporates an online assessment for each candidate taken in their own time at the practice.
The topics that will be covered include;

Welcome, introductions and objectives
What are we doing now ?
What is the required change ?
What is our route map ?
How to do this safely?
Managing potential risk – a 5 stage approach
The importance of Clinical Governance

Parkinson’s disease in primary care
2023-06-20 13:00 - 14:00
Location
Online via WebEx at 13:00 – 14:00
About the event
This on the couch conversation will provide the opportunity for an honest conversation about why primary care pharmacy colleagues may hesitate to make or suggest changes to Parkinson’s medicines and how they can develop the confidence to make a difference in the lives of these patients.
Why it’s important
There is no cure for Parkinson’s and currently no medications which impact disease progression. People with Parkinson’s rely on the medications they take every day to control their symptoms and need individualised care to achieve this. Pharmacy staff in primary care can make a huge difference through support for medication review and optimisation in Parkinson’s. This webinar will share information and ideas to show how the pharmacy team can add value to the care of these patients.
What will be covered

A consultant pharmacist’s perspective on how the pharmacy team can contribute to optimising medicines in Parkinson’s
Examples of primary care pharmacy interventions and contributions

Speakers
A range of speakers from SPS and other organisations will run this event.
Non-SPS Speakers
Shelley Jones

Wellbeing Conversations Training
2023-06-16 09:00 - 10:00
Managers and Leaders: Join us for a L&SC PCTH Wellbeing Conversation Session!

What is a wellbeing conversation?
The NHS People Plan 2020-21 sets out an ambition: “From September 2020, every member of the NHS should have a health and wellbeing conversation and develop a personalised plan. These conversations may fit within an appraisal, job plan or one-to-one line management discussion, and should be reviewed at least annually. As part of this conversation, line managers will be expected to discuss the individual’s health and wellbeing, and any flexible working requirements, as well as equality, diversity and inclusion.”

Vision for the wellbeing conversations
Health and wellbeing conversations are intended to be regular, supportive, coaching-style one to one conversations that focus on the wellbeing of our NHS people.
By encouraging organisations to embed wellbeing conversations across their system, we aim to create cultures where people feel heard and valued, and in which diversity is respected. This should, in turn, encourage us all to pass care and compassion on to each other, to patients and to our families.
Wellbeing conversations should consider the whole wellbeing of an individual (e.g. physical, mental, emotional, social, financial, lifestyle, safety) and identify areas where the individual may need support, signpost them to that support, and regularly monitor their wellbeing over time.

If you are no longer able to attend, please cancel your place via Eventbrite. If you are struggling with booking or cancelling your place, please contact us on mbpcc.lscthub@nhs.net
