We are proud to announce that we will be running Derbyshire's first CARE Programme in October 2023!

What is CARE?

CARE is a learning and development programme that empowers primary healthcare professionals to play a key role within their primary care network, to shape services based on population health needs and to strengthen their leadership. Focusing on wellbeing and building and harnessing resilience, the programme connects primary care professionals and supports joined-up, multi-professional working.

The programme focuses on:

  • Building personal resilience and wellbeing
  •   Improving understanding of population health
  • Developing leadership for system impact

The CARE programme is suitable for all primary care colleagues (both clinical and non-clinical): GPs, Practice Managers, General Practice Nurses, Allied Health Professionals, and all additional roles

You are invited to join the CARE Programme (mailchi.mp)

Decision support tools

 

Decision support tools, also called patient decision aids, support shared decision making by making treatment, care and support options explicit. They provide evidence-based information about the associated benefits/harms and help patients to consider what matters most to them in relation to the possible outcomes, including doing nothing.
