More cervical cancer training dates for non-clinical staff

Following successful training over the summer, North East London Cancer Alliance is working with Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust once again to bring non-clinical staff free online training sessions on cervical health.

The training will enable non-clinical administrators, receptionists and other patient-facing primary care staff to have conversations with people in your community confidently.

The aim is to increase awareness, knowledge and understanding of the importance of cervical screening, HPV and the vaccine.

Taught by Jo’s Trust knowledgeable trainer, Lisa Gates, staff will learn about cervical cancer, signs and symptoms, prevention and barriers to screening.

The interactive sessions are 1.5 hours in duration and will run throughout September, October, November and December 2022.
