Course Details
Primary care differs from the rest of the health care settings . It is unique as patients present with a symptom, not a diagnosis, adding an extra layer of complexity and uncertainty to a consultation.
This session is focused on the complexity of cases in primary care in the context of personalised care, health inequalities and non -communicable diseases. We will explore the subject together in an interactive session and put it into practice with a case study. If anybody has a complex case they would like to share with the group to discuss, please bring it along!
