GatewayC January spotlight
Welcome to our new spotlight series, where we round up our resources, news and early diagnosis insights we’ve shared with you throughout January.?
Supporting Cervical Cancer Prevention Week (20-26 January)?
During Cervical Cancer Prevention Week (20-26 Jan), we shared a range of early diagnosis resources to support your practice.???
Cancer Keys??
We released two Cancer Keys providing bite-sized tips on early detection and screening for cervical cancer.??
Our first Cancer Key highlighted crucial red flags of cervical cancer and clear guidance on when to refer, helping you make confident clinical decisions.
Our second Cancer Key addressed barriers to cervical cancer screening in the LGBTQIA+ community, providing practical guidance to improve uptake.??
Our Cervical CPD course?
Our CPD cervical early diagnosis course is packed with useful guidance covering symptoms, safety netting approaches, essential investigations and referral pathways.?
According to previous research by Jo’s Cervical Cancer trust it was revealed that 39% of women worried about the stigma associated with HPV.???
We shared a clip from our cervical course of our interview with Jo Sanger, formerly from Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust, on how we can best support patients with abnormal test results.?
In the news: Knowledge gap on cervical screening amongst patients.
A recent report from The Eve Appeal charity revealed that many patients are unaware they can ask for adjustments to their cervical screening appointments, which can be a distressing experience for some.?
The report suggests most women were unaware they can request for longer appointments, smaller speculums, for the test to be stopped at any moment, or move to more comfortable positions.?
