Overview
A hands-on practical update for all psychiatrists
supported by the General
and Community Psychiatry Faculty, Royal College of Psychiatrists
covering: Cardiology, Endocrinology, Neurology, Respiratory
Conditions and Physical Examination.
The problem of physical co-morbidity
in people with a mental illness is receiving increasing
recognition. Lifestyle factors, side effects of medication, genetic
influences and inequalities in health service provision may all
combine to lead to an increased prevalence of physical illness in
this population. Maintaining the skills necessary for the detection
of common medical disorders in people with mental illness, is an
essential component of psychiatric practice.
This course brings together a range of
experts to provide you with an update on the common physical
disorders that occur in your everyday practice, followed by a
practical session to refresh your physical examination skills. This
course is eligible for 6 CPD hours subject to your
peer group approval.
