We hope this finds you well and enjoying your prescribing role.

Why Attend a Teach & Treat Session?
CPIPs who have attended these sessions have found them extremely useful and highly recommend taking advantage of the opportunity. You’ll receive great support from Hub Leads and practical guidance to enhance your prescribing confidence.

There are T&T Hubs across most NHS Boards for you to choose from.
