Trevor Mason
A lot of useful information presented here. The speaker was knowledgeable and interesting. My only issue was the visual limitation, as she was obviously using a PowerPoint presentation which would have been useful to see. Otherwise, dry useful and informative
Nicole Finch
Informative.
Alison Short
Very informative and relevant to providing reasonable patient care
Ann Simpson
Well presented and informative lecture given by an impressively qualified lady. Always good to be updated on the legal requirements of patient consent and possible legal consequences of treatment/non-treatment decisions.
