Palliative Medicine | RCPE Events

Horizontal

Overview

In this Evening Medical Update, our speakers will talk about palliative care emergencies, clinical communication skills at the end of life, and pain management in palliative care.

The Evening Medical Updates programme covers specialities, presentations and conditions included within the Internal Medicine Training (IMT) curriculum. Within these, we aim to cover topics from a range of clinical settings including the acute medical take, outpatients department, community care and critical care. The programme also includes a non-clinical update covering a range of topics.

Topics are covered in monthly updates between September and June of each academic year, and each session consists of three 30-minute presentations.

Although aimed primarily at medical trainees, Evening Medical Updates are open to all hospital doctors, GPs, other healthcare professionals, and medical students.

Delegates are able to submit questions via Slido and we will cover as many questions as possible during the live session, and any questions not answered will be done retrospectively and posted on our EMU pages.
