University of Stirling, University of Dundee and SHAAP report launch: Alcohol management in Deep End practices.
About this event
Join us online on Wednesday 9 March from 11:00-12:00 GMT for the launch of a new University of Stirling, University of Dundee and SHAAP report: Alcohol management in Deep End practices.
This research, led by Dr Andrea Mohan of the University of Dundee, and conducted in collaboration with researchers from the University of Stirling, explored stakeholders’ experiences and perceptions of the management of alcohol problems in Deep End general practices in Glasgow via the Primary Care Alcohol Nurse Outreach Service (PCANOS) model.
The PCANOS model aims to engage patients with serious alcohol problems who have not interacted with other services, and to link them to mainstream community support.
The research involved interviews with 23 stakeholders including GPs, addiction nurses and patients with a focus on views and experiences of PCANOS and community services.
The report launch will include a presentation of the findings and recommendations for policy by the researchers, and will leave time for attendees to engage in an open Q&A session and discussion.
Confirmed speakers are:
- Dr Andrea Mohan, The University of Dundee
- Dr Clare Sharp, The University of Stirling
- Dr Danielle Mitchell, The University of Stirling
- Linda Doonan, Primary Care Alcohol Nurse Outreach Service
- Dr Andrea Williamson, The University of Glasgow and GPs at the Deep End Steering Goup
This report launch is suitable for anyone interested in or working in the field of alcohol research and/or policy-making as well as anyone working in services to support people with substance use disorders. Please share with your colleagues or anyone who may be interested in these findings.
The webinar will be hosted online using the Zoom platform, and registrants will receive a link in advance of the event.
