17th National Conference
ADVANCE WARINING!
Next years annual RCGP National Conference will be in Cardiff on 11th and 12th May 2012.
I am a GP and also work in an inpatient addictions unit in South London.
I am honorary regional lead for the Royal College of General Practitioners Substance Misuse and Associated Health unit.
I hope this blog will allow all those working with substance users in the community in Greater London - GPs, shared care workers, pharmacists, prison staff and patients - to stay in touch with the current events.
I can be e-mailed on

PANN is our forum for practitioners working in the field of primary care drug treatment. Keeping the e-mail list up-to date is difficult. If you know of anyone who has done either part 1 or part 2 of the Certificate, (or works with substance misusers in primary care,) and may benefit from being part of this network, please let me know their name and address or e-mail address so I can write to them.
