ONLINE MINOR ILLNESS COURSE · FOUNDING PRICE £199
A full-day foundation in minor illness and injury
Build a structured approach to consultation, observations, examination, common presentations, urgent alternatives, disposition and safety-netting across body systems.
Consult before you diagnose
Begin with consultation structure, Calgary–Cambridge principles, observations, NEWS2 context, examination boundaries and documentation.
Learn by body system
Work through ENT, eyes, respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, urinary and genital presentations, skin and soft tissue, limbs, wounds, bites, burns, head and facial injury, neurological symptoms and presentations across the lifespan.
Compare common and urgent alternatives
Each presentation uses a repeatable structure: typical features, focused assessment, examination, possible differentials, red flags, disposition and safety-netting. Clinical photographs and original diagrams support visual learning.
Finish with cases and assessment
Complete 16 modules, 12 staged cases, mandatory knowledge checks and a 40-question final assessment including visual questions.
