This interactive event aims to provide trainees with an understanding of the key principles of providing great care to young people. Presentations will focus on common problems faced in general paediatric settings, and on approaches used to support young people in a busy ward or clinic.
With a range of engaging speakers, this will be a stimulating day that will equip learners with practical tips and tricks that can be easily applied to their practice, and improve care for the young people they see.
By attending you will:
- Have increased confidence talking to young people, performing a HEADSSS assessment and enabling young people to participate in their own care
- Understand the importance of psychosocial development in chronic disease self-management and concordance
- Develop your understanding of functional disorders presenting in adolescence and how to manage them using a multidisciplinary approach
- Consider the impact of cultural, social religious and economic factors on adolescent health
- Evaluate the special health needs of young people in the UK who are immigrants from low-income countries (as refugees or asylum seekers) or who have been affected by armed conflict or natural disasters
- Develop an understanding of contextual safeguarding
- Learn how to identify at-risk young people and how to refer and signpost to appropriate services
- Learn about more specialised aspects of adolescent health such as gender dysphoria, contraception and sexual health
- Appreciate the importance of young people’s voices in service planning and delivery
- Have opportunities to discuss training pathways and SPIN in adolescent health
