The Course
Over three lectures we focus on structuring follow-up plans to support patients using rectal irrigation, ensuring the continued use of the treatment.
The focus is around any challenges the patient may encounter.
We also hear from a team on how changes to follow-up and the different support available has helped them improve patient outcomes.
What you will learn
We'll start at what is follow-up and outline best practice and timings. We then go on to identifying and addressing problems and look into patient engagement as part of managing a patient's routine.
With the help of our guests we delve deeper into the benefits of follow-up within clinical practice and the use of additional support for patients.
Follow-ups don't always go to plan and with the help of our guests we discuss three different atypical scenarios and actions.
