Professional Networks Funding (Round 2) Oct - Nov 2021
From the CSP Professional Networks office:
From feedback in April both internally and externally, the process for submitting in the second round remains the same as April this year. A short pre-recorded video will therefore be required and this replaces the 1000 word written application that had been requested in previous years. We have used a similar format for other types of submission in the CSP, and feel this would allow PN’s to not only explain the project in more detail, but also to get across more information than 1000 word limit that was previously in place. The guidance document has also been reviewed again, and we hope to have added more detail with regards to what we are looking for, in terms of the scoring of the projects in order to offer out funding.
NEW ACPOHE webinar: Work and Health for First Contact Practitioners PART 2 – Practical use of the health & work report
We're delighted to announce our next ACPOHE webinar: Work and Health for First Contact Practitioners PART 2 – Practical use of the health & work report
is on August 26th 2021, 12:00 - 13:00
This second webinar presented by ACPOHE on this topic will consider the reality of using the 'Health and Work Report' in FCP practice, as a tool to support people at or absent from work.
We will hear from two physiotherapists working in NHS primary care who have research and practical experience of using the 'Health and Work report'.
Cameron Black is currently completing a Professional Doctorate. The Thesis is focussed on FCPs and their ability to take on fitness for work and sickness absence certification roles. He is also involved in a national evaluation of FCP practice, publishing articles on the topic.Laura McColl is a practising FCP and supervisor for her team. Her current role is split between the clinical and supervisory aspect of the FCP service. As part of the role all of the FCPs use the AHP Health and Work report to facilitate patients to remain working or to support a short period away from work. Laura will share her experiences, reflections and practical tips for using the tool.
This webinar is presented free on Zoom and is available to ACPOHE members and non-members.
