Our course goal will be to share with you how normal day-to-day function is changed by interference with the fascial and connective tissue anatomy. By understanding how various systems interlink to determine function, we can explore new and integrated treatment strategies as a tool to relieve the post surgical and radiotherapy trauma following breast and head & neck surgery.
This workshop will be a good mix of practical and academic work, and the number of participants will therefore be limited. Suitable for Physiotherapists / Therapists working with breast and head & neck cancer patients, e.g. Oncology / Women’s Health, Primary Care and Musculoskeletal settings.

It aims to provide some practical tools, hands-on practice and personal experience of coaching.

This course offers the minimum level of first aid certification recommended by the Health and
Safety Executive, reflecting recent legislative changes. It is essential not only to meet the
statutory Health and Safety obligations of your practice but also for professional registration
and indemnity requirements. It is a common complaint that traditional first aid training does
not address the needs of the Healthcare Professional: in this course, delegates are
encouraged to re-evaluate their emergent skills and knowledge and discuss their own
experiences and concerns amongst their peers, based on actual scenarios and case studies.
Delegates receive training in a range of first aid subjects, including:
Legalities of First Aid
The Primary Survey
Basic Life Support
Early recognition of Acute Coronary Syndromes
Management of the unconscious casualty
Management of trauma, medical and environmental scenarios
On completion of the course delegates receive the nationally- recognised 'Emergency First Aid' certificate, valid for 3 years. |
