PPA Peer support & reflection session
Wed 28 Feb 2024 8:00 AM - 8:55 AM GMT
Online, Zoom
Description
Join us for an hour of reflection and facilitated discussion. We are trialing breakfast sessions to enable people to attend at the start of their work day.
It doesn't matter if you have not attended yet, if you have only attended one session, or many - all members of the PPA and APCP are very welcome. Many members have valued this space:
"I thought it was great to have a support network in which you could discuss case studies to assist with the future management of patients... I would highly recommend the peer support sessions for new graduates wanting help to manage complex pain patients." Newly qualified Rotational Physiotherapist
"A really valuable hour spent with folk connecting with shared values .. providing the best care we can." Pain Specialist Physiotherapist
The session offers an opportunity to explore challenging aspects of supporting people experiencing complex pain.
These sessions are open to members of the Physiotherapy Pain Association or the Association of Paediatric Chartered Physiotherapists in all specialties and areas of practice.
Participants are invited to bring along a case or aspect of practice that they would be willing to discuss with a small group. It would be helpful if cases could be summarised into a line or two that could be shared in the chat box. After introductions, the group will choose which case to discuss collectively.
The case or topic is described by the presenter for 5 minutes. Clarifying questions are asked for 10 minutes and then the presenter turns off their camera and the rest of the group reflect and respond to the challenging situation for 15 minutes. There are then 5 minutes at the end for the presenter to share their reflections.
These sessions will be an opportunity for clinicians at all stages of their career to reflect and develop their practice through open conversations and facilitated discussion.
This event is free for PPA and APCP members
