The session aims to inspire and motivate trainees and qualified ACP. It also exposes staff to aspects of ACP life outside of the clinical arena, engaging in stimulating, educational and diverse material.
The session will provide an opportunity to explore the latest developments and practice of ACP, network within the community of Trust-based ACPs and hear about the visions of the future.
All tickets (on-site and virtual) include access to the event recordings, resources and presentations for up to 6 months post-event date.
