About: A focused professional development day for nurses and allied health professionals exploring spinal cord injury (SCI) in children and young people. The programme covers rehabilitation, long-term support, and family-centred care, with practical learning on assessment, mobility, bowel and bladder management, skin care, goal setting, and the psychosocial impact of SCI. Designed to build confidence and skills through an evidence-informed, multidisciplinary approach, this day is ideal for both newcomers to SCI care and those looking to deepen their practice.
