Case site needed! We're still looking for a dietitian who has just begun NMP training to take part in a case study. We'd collect data before and after you qualify as a prescriber to assess the impact of your prescribing. Get in touch if you can help. @BDA_Dietitians

We've been a bit quiet on here as we're busy preparing for our case studies to begin. These are a key part of our study - collecting data from practitioners, their colleagues and patients to assess the impact of prescribing by dietitians and therapeutic radiographers.
