Alcohol Misuse Training
Our Alcohol Misuse Training equips
health care professionals with the skills to develop and deliver an
enhanced level of Screening and Brief Interventions (SBI) in
general practice.
A standardised delivery of SBI to harmful
drinkers can save more years of life and provide better value for
money than other approaches.
It is also easy to deliver but widely
under-used in primary care despite strong evidence to support
it.
The course is delivered by our Wales
Clinical Lead as a college-accredited two-part certificate
programme and open to GPs, health visitors, midwives, nurses,
pharmacists and prison workers.
Drawing on best practice and 'what works' for
primary care practitioners its contents are linked to the delivery
of nationally and locally enhanced services (nGMS) and supports the
development of GPs with a Special Interest (GPwSI).
It is also linked to the Models of Care for
Alcohol Misusers (McCAM) and supported by a governance and
professional development framework through regional clinical leads
and SMMGP.
