About the course

This course is meticulously crafted for hospital trust staff engaged in both clinical and non-clinical roles, particularly those anticipated to collaborate with individuals exhibiting co-morbid mental and physical health conditions. Participants will immerse themselves in a comprehensive, day-long, classroom-based learning experience characterised by a concentrated focus on theory and a highly interactive style.

The instructional content encompasses a variety of videos and case scenarios addressing a broad spectrum of mental health conditions commonly encountered in acute hospital settings. Subsequent to the presentation of these materials, the course entails in-depth discussions and mini teaching sessions to enhance understanding. The primary goal of the course is to empower participants with the knowledge necessary for identifying challenging co-morbid mental health presentations within the general hospital context.
