The Bowel Cancer Care with Confidence CPD Series comprise six interactive, self-paced learning modules totalling 20 CPD hours, providing comprehensive, evidence-based learning to enhance knowledge, confidence, and clinical competence in bowel cancer care.
The CPD Series is for Registered Nurses working with surgical, oncology and general practice settings who provide care for patients diagnosed with bowel cancer, as well as nurses seeking to expand their oncology knowledge and scope of practice.
Allied Health professionals will also be able to benefit from the CPD Series.
The aim of the CPD Series is to provide comprehensive, evidence-based learning to enhance nurses’ knowledge, confidence, and clinical competence specifically in bowel cancer care.
