GP Nurse Update course summary

Stay confident in your clinical practice – in just one day.

 

Practical, structured training designed to help busy healthcare professionals quickly understand what’s changed and what to do differently in practice.

 

We break down new evidence, recent guideline changes and key topics into clear, actionable insights so you can apply the learning when you need it.  

 

Engaging, varied learning helps information stick, giving you a reliable way to refresh knowledge, reduce uncertainty and keep pace with clinical change. More than just online CPD, it supports ongoing professional development and offers a chance to feel professionally rejuvenated, restoring confidence and enthusiasm for day-to-day clinical practice.

 

A small splash of the topics we cover

  • Type 2 diabetes: concepts, management for specific groups and more – we have the new NICE guidance covered
  • Obesity wraparound lifestyle support: covering the key factors that sit alongside pharmacological management
  • Chronic heart failure: we cover the NEW NICE guidance, highlighting practice-changing updates to management
  • UKMEC: we discuss the contraceptive eligibility updates
  • Wheeze in preschool children… or asthma? Join us to find out more
  • Cervical cancer screening and HPV testing: what we need to know following the National Screening Committee update
  • And lots more key clinical updates - we typically cover 20-30 topics per full-day course!
