About this event
Join us for the Live Virtual “All Wales Headache Toolkit” Launch Event
An interactive 60-minute live virtual event for all primary and secondary care healthcare professionals who are involved in the differential diagnosis of headache, and the management of primary headache disorders.
During the event the panel will launch the All Wales Headache Toolkit. Developed in partnership with NHS Wales’ Neurological Conditions Implementation Group (NCIG), funded through the Bevan Commission Planned Care Innovation Programme, the All Wales Headache Toolkit comprises pathways to support frontline teams in the differential diagnosis of headache, as well as the management of some of the most common types of headache disorders in practice.
