Pressure Ulcer Prevention - No thank you
On occasions, individuals may decline a suggested care intervention which may lead to increased risk and conflict with staff wishing to add in these interventions. This webinar explores why people may make decisions about their care that healthcare professionals find challenging. Why HCPs find these decisions challenging. What national guidance there is around this topic. What you can do when a person decides not to adhere to suggested care interventions.
Learning Outcomes
- To consider why people may decline care interventions
- To be aware of national guidance and research into concordance/adherence
- To be aware of shared decision-making and what this means
- To understand what to do when concordance cannot be achieved

With RCOT’s OT week this year focusing on ‘prevention and early intervention’, this webinar will look closely at identifying the risks for individuals if their posture starts to change.

Super-supervision: back to basics with Shaen Milward
This is a practical webinar for both supervisors and supervisees who want to get more from the supervision process, whether they are delivering it, receiving it, or shaping a stronger supervision culture. The session will revisit the core purpose of supervision, explore what makes supervision effective, and consider the attitudes and conversations that help it become a meaningful professional space rather than just a routine meeting. We will cover key functions of supervision, common pitfalls, the shared responsibility of both parties, and simple approaches that support reflective thinking, accountability, professional growth and psychological safety. Suitable for those new to supervision, as well as experienced practitioners wanting to refresh and strengthen their practice.
