Red Whale Primary Care Pod

Grab your trainers, your dog lead or a pumpkin spice latte and join us for some free CPD as we have another relaxed round up of recent Red Whale primary care Pearls of wisdom. September was another bumper month of information, meaning that we can’t possibly squeeze it all into one handy sized episode, so in the first of two episodes this month, Ali and Nik discuss:

• How to approach alopecia consultations. Having a framework for conditions that patients have to pluck up courage to ask about can be really helpful…
• Workplace-based assessment (WPBA) demystified. We’re here to support the next generation of GP trainees, along with their supervisors.

Listen as soon as you can to ensure you have full access to all the free resources.

The rest of the Pearls from September will be covered next week along with a new best intentions story to put a smile on your face.
