APM Management Workshop: A Practical Guide to Service Development in Palliative Medicine
Aim: To provide knowledge and skills in how to develop a new service/reconfigure services.
Objectives:
• To gain an understanding of the data and evidence required to identify service gaps and create a compelling business case, through the use of a structured approach
• To recognise the different departments and stakeholders to involve in the development of a service
• To develop competencies in applying effective methods for conducting service reviews.
Intended Audience: New Consultants, SAS Doctors and final year Trainees
Two scenarios to provide opportunity to put learning to practical use – a hospice-based scenario, and a hospital based scenario.
