This is the second of our two-part CPD webinar series on menopause which looks at ways in which nurses can support patients with the menopause.

Whilst the tide may be turning on menopause awareness with more and more women talking about their experiences, the process of identifying, treating and supporting patients through this stage of life still leaves room for improvement, and this is where nurses can play a key part in shaping the menopause experience for their patients.

Aside from discussing treatment options to tackle the physical effects of menopause, this webinar also looks at the psychological and mental impact  patients experience, such as panic attacks, increased stress and a lack of sleep.  It provides nurses with the tools they need to support each individual, to offer the very best in person-centred care.

This webinar took place 21 September 2022

This event was sponsored by Stella and A.Vogel.
