SfE awards second Public Engagement Grant

Dr Niki Karavitaki, Consultant Endocrinologist, Oxford, will deliver two ‘Steroid replacement study days’ to educate patients with adrenal insufficiency and their family members/carers about their condition and medication. These events are sponsored by SfE through a Public Engagement Grant awarded to Dr Karavitaki.

The study days will take place at the Oxford Centre for Diabetes, Endocrinology & Metabolism. Dr Karavitaki will be joined by Specialty Registrars and an Endocrine Nurse team to deliver educational talks and a practical demonstration of the emergency steroid jabs. Previous study days have received excellent feedback and have improved attendees’ confidence in giving the emergency steroid jab. The events will take place from 17:00-18:30 on Monday 5 March 2012, and at the same time on Monday 24 September 2012.
