Our Virtual Learning Portal.
GPs are ideally placed to offer primary and secondary prevention and guidance to patients at risk of a cardiac event and to ensure the right patients are referred on to a cardiologist.
GPs need ongoing education and training to do that vital job well. Yet, many CME/CPD opportunities have been cancelled due to COVID-19.
That’s why Healthscope has created this online education portal.
