Medical Terminology
We are now offering some courses online via video conferencing software, please click here if you'd like to view dates and book.
By the end of this workshop, your staff will have a good understanding of the principal terminology that they will come across in their day to day work. The detail is based upon actual feedback from receptionists and managers (general practice and non-clinicians) as to the terminology they see, and does not give details which are unlikely to be used.
We feel that a working knowledge of terminology is essential to all staff members, but in particular to those involved in coding, summarising and secretarial work.

Key Feedback
The course was interesting and informative. I gained a lot of knowledge and information that is relevant to the role I undertake. There were a handful of others on the course so were able to learn at a pace that was steady and comfortable. We were given the opportunity to ask questions as we went along. Overall a very enjoyable course. (MC)
Please don't let a course which is delivered over Teams put you off doing this. I felt involved in both the course and its content and actually found the sessions more relaxing in familiar surroundings. The interaction with the other delegates was easy and the course was delivered by Paul brilliantly in trying circumstances - I am glad I took part :) (LN)
I really enjoyed the course; it was very interesting and taught me a lot. Paul was amazing; he explained everything in a way we could remember easily and understand. Before the course I didn’t know any medical terminology and now I have a booklet full of information. Would recommend! (CB)
I found this course thoroughly enjoyable and have taken from it lots of information and tools of how to look at different words, break them down and get to the meaning. It was good to refresh on the different parts of the body as its surprising what you sometimes forget when you haven’t done it for a while. Pauls little extra stories helped me to remember things and were also quite funny! (AC)
Really enjoyed taking part in the course, felt very engaged and found it really easy to follow. Paul was fantastic at getting everyone involved and discussing the answers together. At no point did I feel like I was lost or confused about what we were learning and I felt the mini test throughout really helped the information stay in my head. (GA)
Very value adding online training experience. Absolutely enjoyed to the last minute. Paul was a great trainer. Kept the training interactive & interesting and delivered a lot of information at the same time. I would definitely recommend more training. (KS) 30.07.20
