Subject: Re: [OCC-HEALTH] Raising the profile of OHA's etc
I would like to sing the praises of the OH diploma at Warwick - this is
extremely practical and relevant, encompassing most of what OH nurses
use on a day to day basis as well as providing information on wider
health and safety issues, case management and sickness absence. A degree
would be the follow on from this but for basics, an overview and
encouragement for improving practise I think it would be difficult to
beat. A new and experienced OHA, and any workplace would greatly benefit
from this course
