NASS is calling for first contact practitioners, GPs, community MSK physiotherapists and other NHS primary and community care professionals to apply for the opportunity to join their brand-new Champions in Primary Care programme.
Successful applicants will work together with NASS to help end diagnostic delay in axial spondyloarthritis (axial SpA). Those selected to join the two-year development programme will receive leadership development support, training in the theory and methods of quality improvement and assistance with identifying and implementing improvement projects which they will test and refine. They will work together in a national learning network to foster community-building, the exchange of ideas and good practice and act as catalysts for change. And they will co-create a body of knowledge, methods, tools and experience, and work together to share their learning with primary and community service across the UK.
