NEWS/UPDATE BOARD - This and past updates can be found here

Message from SGPET Vice Chair - Looking to the next year we have reflected on the successes we have had in continuing to provide education despite being in a pandemic and listened to your feedback. We are hoping to offer a blend of face to face and online education and recapture the support we all get from meeting with our colleagues.
Hopefully study days will be a blend of face to face and online, you may already have noticed you can choose which to book at the respiratory study day in September. The number of face to face places will be reduced to allow for social distancing. Presentations from the study day will be available online after the event, but we will not be recording live events to view later.
Evening meetings will include local face to face discussion groups (Bridgewater, Taunton, Wells and South Somerset) and county wide education evenings that are online. There will continue to be groups for PCPs, Lead Nurses, First Five, Sessional GPs and GP Fellows.
Thank you for your consideration over the last 18 months and we look forward to seeing you at future events.

There is an opportunity for five late applications to the Level 7 ACP Degree Apprenticeship delivered from the College of Medicine and Health at the University of Exeter. If you have staff, or know of others around your network who would really like to start on this in-demand programme in late September, please ask them to contact as below and they will do their best to assist with applications. As this won’t be offered again for 12 months, it would be a shame not to fill all the places. for further details please contact e.k.f.pavelle@exeter.ac.uk or krissie.bromly@nhs.net

APPLYING FOR UWE Courses 2021-22 - As you are aware there is no centrally funded Contract for UWE modules from now on and all courses are to be funded, unless otherwise notified, by the Practice from the National CPD Funding for Nurses, Nursing Associates and AHPs. Therefore when applying, check your Practice Manger agrees to fund and select "Employer not on List" as sponsor and an invoice will be sent to your practice. Please do not select CCG- NHS Somerset Primary Care as 'sponsor' as this will be rejected.
Also there has been a confusion over which Sexual Health course is suitable for General Practice staff. There are 2 courses available. The latter is normally more appropriate. Hettie Lean is the course tutor and will advise which module is relevant
Integrated Practice for Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare
Promoting Sexual Health in Practice
