About the CPD course
In the UK; over 10;000 new cases of bladder cancer are diagnosed each year; making it the 4th most common cause of cancer in men and the 12th most common in women. This module is focused on the common causes of blood in the urine (haematuria); history taking in patients presenting with visible and non-visible haematuria; basic investigations; and potential differential diagnoses. On completion of the module; you should be familiar with the different ways in which haematuria presents and understand the importance of good history taking; the rationale for investigation and pathways for onward referral.
We’re ‘buzzing’ to be sharing with you the latest education venture at Greater Manchester Cancer Alliance. The Greater Manchester Cancer Academy – the hive of cancer education – will support the development of a sustainable lifelong learning model for cancer care across all care settings. We want to ensure that our workforce is equipped with the skills and tools necessary to delivery the best patient care whilst supporting the delivery of the NHS People Plan and the Long Term Plan ambitions for cancer services. The Academy will help to reduce inequity around accessing cancer education and provides a mechanism to standardise training, education and career frameworks for our current and future non-medical workforce.
