Free Members' Webinar: Dean's Grand Rounds - Multiple long-term conditions (multi-morbidity) in people with Intellectual Disability

Event Information

This ground round will focus on multiple long-term condition which is one of the major challenges that we are facing today. One in three patients admitted to hospital as an emergency has five or more health conditions which is a significant increase from a decade ago when it was one in ten. Multimorbidity that include a mental health condition has been less studied and explored. 

Although the context of the presentation is on people with intellectual disability, the challenges related to multi-morbidity is relevant for all mental health professionals.

The grand rounds will start with a presentation by an expert by experience and then explore the evidence base for the management, population level challenges as well as discussion of a currently ongoing research project on multi-morbidity which uses artificial intelligence in improving our knowledge and management of these conditions. 

Chaired by Dr Inder Sawhney, Chair of the Faculty of Intellectual Disability.
