This year the workshop will be split into four sections
- Thursday morning - An update in H&N since the last conference
(e.g publications, national initiatives, research initiatives)
- Thursday afternoon - Functional outcomes
(e.g appearance, dental, nutrition/ PEG, speech, swallowing, nutrition/ PEG)
- Friday morning - Identifying needs/Communicatio/Emotional Distress
(e.g getting the most of our communication in a busy clinical setting)
- Friday afternoon - The patient and carer persepctive
(Feedback from patient and cares on websites / priority setting / support groups)
The conference is suitable for all members of the H&N MDT. Throughout the meeting there will be free papers - please consider submitting an abstract. Also there will be even more time than previous years for discussion and sharing best practice.
This year we have decided to try a new venue, we have relocated to the Hard Days Night Hotel in Liverpool. Due to this change we will be limiting numbers to 100 delegates. We will award places on a first come, first served basis, however those booking to attend both days will be given priority over people booking a single day in order to ensure balance for both days of the conference.
Course organiser: Prof Simon Rogers Liverpool
