Expert non-clinical training for healthcare managers and teams.

Working in a clinical practice presents a unique set of challenges. Many of the pressures faced by staff don’t centre on medicine, but on the difficulties of running a busy, constantly changing workplace. The right non-clinical training can make all the difference, equipping practice managers and staff with the skills they need. General Practice Training specialises in providing high quality training that’s ideal for healthcare staff at all levels. We offer in-house workshops adapted to the needs of your practice and your team, or participatory online courses via Zoom (or equivalent). Book your course today, or get in touch to discuss your training needs.

It is always good to have a refresher course regarding interaction with patients as there are always new guidelines/changes in the way surgeries are run or what they offer.
