Our Travel Health Update was a great success
With summer holidays looming on the horizon it was unsurprising that our Travel Health Update held on the 30 June 2016 proved very popular. It covered many important updates on travel health including advice on the current outbreak of the Zika virus, recent developments in travel medicine and new data on vaccines.
Feedback on the event was very positive; attendees praised the understanding and knowledge of the speaker, commenting on their approachability and how easy it had been to ask questions thoughout the workshop.
When asked for suggestions on how we could make this event even better, one reply was “It’s a very informative session, so I don’t know how you can improve it”.
Our next event ‘Leadership through change: making the most of your staff - Practice Manager Conference’ is taking place on 22 September 2016. This combination of seminars and practical workshops will provide delegates with the necessary tools to deal with the changing and often challenging, environment of general practice
