SUMMARY:A Life in a Day: the power of empathy training strategies and their impact on clinical practice
DESCRIPTION:Join BOPA vice chair Emma Foreman and A Life in a Day Founder Mark Doyle on 7 February as they discuss the power of empathy training strategies and their impact on clinical practice. \nTime and Date: Tue 7 Feb 1pm GMT / 2pm CET \nEarlier in November authors from British Oncology Pharmacy Association (BOPA) and UK Oncology Nursing Society (UKONS)\, including Emma Foreman\, published a research paper with their results showcasing the impact role reversal system (RRS) such as A Life in a Day has on increasing empathy and changing practice in HCPs. \nAt the same time reports into compassion fatigue\, or empathy burnout\, describe the impact and the ‘cost of caring’. Are we going too far with promoting the need to be empathetic? \nIn this webinar\, we will review the report and discuss the impact RRS can have on healthcare professionals and the wider healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors. We will also tackle questions including: \n\nHow can RSS inspire changes in clinical practise?\nWho benefits most – medical students? Nursing staff? Consultants?\nIn a challenging financial environment – should budgets for softer skills development be a priority?\n\nContact us before the webinar on 7 February with any questions you may wish to propose to Mark or Emma below. \nMore details at:  https://alifeinaday.co.uk/2023/01/03/should-hcps-receive-training-to-be-more-empathetic-will-it-benefit-patients-or-is-there-a-danger-of-empathy-fatigue/

SUMMARY:BOPA E&T [Live Online Webinar] Adjuvant Endocrine Therapy for Hormone Receptor Positive Breast Cancer from a Dual Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 30th November 2022 at 19:00 – 20:00 GMT – Click HERE to register\n  \nThe BOPA Education and Training Subcommittee would like to invite you to one of our live webinar sessions on Adjuvant Endocrine Therapy for Hormone Receptor Positive Breast Cancer from a dual perspective. \n  \nThe session will be delivered by: Birgit Cloos\, Cancer Services Pharmacist\, University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust\n\n  \nThis webinar is FREE for all BOPA members and associates.\nClick here to join BOPA\n  \nBIOGRAPHY OF BIRGIT\nBirgit has been working in Cancer Services for almost 20 years. \nShe studied pharmacy in Germany in the 1990s before moving to the UK in 2002. She started as a basic grade pharmacist in Derriford Hospital Plymouth and became interested in oncology and haematology during the Bath Clinical Diploma. Since 2005 she has been working in various roles within the Cancer Services Team in Plymouth. Currently she is mostly involved with the safe and prompt implementation of new anticancer therapies and the training of other healthcare professionals in those new therapies. Birgit likes to learn and keep up to date with new therapies. In 2010 she completed a Master’s in Clinical Oncology with the University of Birmingham. She qualified as a NMP in 2011 however sadly due to the set up in Plymouth she never had the opportunity to develop her skills. She is hopeful that this will change one day in the future. \nBirgit’s life reached a bit of a turning point when she was diagnosed with early breast cancer in spring 2021 during the Covid pandemic. Suddenly she was on the receiving end of breast and oncology services. As a result of this cancer diagnosis and various other life changing events Birgit is now focussing even more on leading a healthy lifestyle and wants to enjoy life more fully. Recently she started a yoga teacher training course with the Devon School of Yoga and is hoping to combine pharmacy and yoga in the future. \n  \nRegister for your free place now via the link at the top of the page.
