Western NSW PHN has been selected to participate in this unique opportunity to work with Family Planning NSW to offer the Well Women’s Screening Course for nurses and midwives working in this PHN.
The Well Women’s Screening course is a foundational course designed to provide Registered Nurses, Midwives and Enrolled Nurses with the skills and knowledge needed to perform a holistic women’s health screening consultation.
The Well Women’s Screening course comprises:
• Online learning
• A one-day workshop at Yoorana Gunya, Forbes on Thursday 19 March 2020
• Workplace practice (Participants will be encouraged to practice cervical screening in their workplace between the workshop and clinical assessment.)
• Clinical assessment 4-6 weeks after the workshop (The course facilitators will work with participants in their workplace, or if required at a Family Planning NSW clinic, for a half day to observe and assess them undertaking cervical screening testing.)
Participants who attend the workshop and successfully complete the clinical assessment will be issued with a Statement of Attainment. This course is equivalent to 28 hours to meet the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) requirements for CPD.
Please express your interest to attend this course by completing the attached agreement and emailing Katie Prior, Education Programs Manager katie.prior@wnswphn.org.au by 21 February 2020. Participation will be confirmed shortly after this date.
