Breakfast Club Case formulation and reflection

The Breakfast Club ECHO activity (465602) is tailored to the cases submitted by the Doctors in Secondary Schools (DiSS) peer group. The aim of this present activity is to encourage the provision of cases for the ECHO activity. In previous years our DiSS community of practice worked through the skills of building a case formulation. This case submission activity invites clinicians to review their practice in relation to this best practice approach to health assessment and prepares new clinicians for ECHO by guiding them through this practice competency.
