About

ED2 builds on the core dermatology skills covered in Essential Dermatology 1 (ED1) by considering itch, skin presentations at specific sites, pediatrics and a review of inflammatory disorders.

ED1 & ED2 are interactive courses covering common primary care presentations in all skin types, for all Health Care Professionals: GPs, GP trainees, ANPs, ENPs, District Nurses, Health visitors, Physician Associates, Practice Nurses, Paramedics, Pharmacists, Podiatrists. Across the day we will introduce you to resources in the PCDS website that will help you in your day to day practice. The courses can be attended in either order however ED2 attendees will benefit from reviewing a small number of circulated pre-reads.

If you are in any doubt as to the suitability of this one day course please do not hesitate to contact the Society by email pcds@pcds.org.uk or by phone 0333 939 0126.
