North East and North Cumbria Programme for alcohol studies

A training programme designed to equip our workforce with the skills and knowledge to effectively prevent and manage alcohol-related harm.

The Programme for Alcohol Studies is a collaborative project created by the NHS North East and North Cumbria Health and Care Partnership and NHS Health Education England North East. The programme is hosted by Making Every Contact Count (MECC).

A new online training platform has opened to all health and care staff who would like to learn more about alcohol abuse. The programme for alcohol studies offers a comprehensive range of self-led and live training opportunities covering:

alcohol awareness - what drives alcohol related harm?
identifying alcohol related harm - how can we talk to patients about it?
interventions to manage alcohol abuse - how can we support the patient journey to recovery?
