Resources Review
It’s Time for a Review
The resources for the Counterweight adult primary care weight management programme have now been in use since the summer of 2006. We are currently undertaking a major review of all resources and would value comments from the people who are using them
Manual, Flipchart and Patient Education Booklets
NHS Counterweight Clinicians: we are particularly interested to hear your opinions.
Counterweight Practitioners: i.e. practice nurses, healthcare assistants, and healthcare support workers who have been trained and use the Counterweight Manual, Flipchart and Patient Education Booklets with patients. We would also like to hear from you. We would like to hear the views of your patients who have been part of the Counterweight Programme, both those who have been successful and those who have been less successful.
Speak with your Local Counterweight Specialist or NHS Counterweight Clinician for further details. For those of you without a local contact please email Paula Noble directly by Friday 13 August 2010: paula.noble@counterweight.org
Focus Groups
As part of our ongoing qualitative research, it is our intention to run a limited number of focus groups to discuss the issues relating to the Counterweight resources and would be keen to gauge interest of people willing to take part in this process. Contact Paula Noble for more details.
Thank you in anticipation for your interest and participation.
