Nurseforce for the Future will offer a two-part workshop day for nurse practitioners and nurses seeking advanced education.

This inaugural workshop has been specifically designed for nurse practitioners and advanced nurses who work in an extended clinical role. The day will consist of two half-day sessions, which will comprehensively cover two key topics of interest; pharmacology and diagnostics.

The pharmacology session will be delivered in the morning, by Dr Jenny Gowan. Jenny will provide an overview of hypertension management, an update on respiratory medicines and devices, and guidelines related to polypharmacy and de-prescribing.
