Further informationNewcastle Clinical Nutrition Course
Course aims:
- To provide a broad grounding in clinical nutrition and allow medical and surgical trainees to develop increased awareness of the appropriate assessment and management of patients with malnutrition.
- The course will be made up of a small group of delegates (maximum 30) and delegates will benefit from case discussions.
- Whilst primarily targeted at trainees, we expect that the programme will carry broader appeal to a wider range of healthcare professionals. We would encourage those interested to attend.
- The course meets the curriculum requirements for gastroenterology trainees required to attend a clinical nutrition course as part of training. The course has been officially endorsed by BAPEN, through their education and training committee and the BSG through the Education Committee.
