DOAC Part II training session for Kent and Medway Primary Care Training Hub

Part II of the training will enable the clinician to implement everything they have learnt in Part I of the training programme in practice. 

During the training, we will look at the blood test threshold parameters allowing for dosage adjustment where appropriate. This part of the training also focuses on counselling patients on the disease and rationale for being prescribed a DOAC and providing a step-by-step SOP to run through whilst conducting a review.
