Description

About the MedAll Primary Care CPD Programme

We are passionate about making medical education free and more accessible. In light of the increasing financial pressures faced by healthcare professionals, including the rising cost of living and strained practice finances, we felt compelled to do something. It's why we have introduced a no-cost CPD programme for doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals working in primary care. We recognise that the high expense of traditional CPD update courses is a significant barrier, and by collaborating as an entire primary care community we hope we can offer a practical, accessible alternative.

About our speaker: Dr Yara Khazaleh Consultant Rheumatologist and Internist,MRCP (UK), MRCP (London) ,MRCP(Rheum) MBBS (Hons)

Dr. Khazaleh has a strong academic and professional background in rheumatology and internal medicine

Who Should Join?

✅ GPs

Note: this event is not formally accredited by an external organisation for CPD points. The current guidance for GP CPD is that it is appropriate that the credits you self-allocate should equal however many hours you spent on learning activities, as long as they are demonstrated by a reflective note on lessons learned and any changes made or planned (if applicable).

Summary

The "Primary Care Updates 2024: Arthritis: Diagnosis to Management" session aims to empower General Practitioners (GPs) with the latest insights and practical strategies essential for the comprehensive care of patients with arthritis.
