Dear Colleagues
CASP and DISCERN have joined forces to offer two pilot
workshops at the Institute of Health Sciences in Oxford for
patients, carers, health professionals and anyone who is interested
in selecting good quality written consumer health information on
treatment choices.
The half-day workshop format includes a presentation, group
discussion and a practical session appraising a printed patient
factsheet on treatments for a health problem. During the workshop,
participants explore the importance of good quality consumer
health information on treatment choices and identify ways in which
DISCERN and the issues raised in the workshop can help them in
future. The workshops are free and are part of a six month project
to develop and evaluate a DISCERN training package.
The workshop dates are: Monday 19th June 12.30 - 4.30, and
Monday 10th July 9 -1. Lunch is included.
