The APCO HCP Peer to Peer Education Modules
The APCO Framework aims to provide clinicians with structured, well-articulated and readily accessible clinical practice guidelines that:
-
Clearly define individuals to be identified for assessment;
-
Investigations required;
-
Relevant indications for treatment;
-
Appropriate selection of interventions to be made;
-
The guidance and information patients need for self-care;
-
Integration of healthcare systems for optimal provision of care; and
-
The need, and methods for monitoring and improving the quality of osteoporosis care.
Implementation of the APCO Framework, to bring about change in the real-world clinical practice of osteoporosis care and fracture prevention, is the goal. A first step in this endeavour is increased awareness and education among bone health professionals.
To aid peer-to-peer education among healthcare professionals on the APCO Framework, a comprehensive educational slide kit titled, “Implementing the minimum clinical standards of The APCO Framework” is available.
It contains 17 modules – one module for each of the 16 APCO Framework Clinical Standards and one module on recently emerging themes in osteoporosis care. Within the modules you will find evidence-based data to help the audience understand the importance of the clinical standard, epidemiological data, topical guideline summaries, best practice examples, discussion questions and call to action.
