Barbers' Company Award for Trainees in Gastroenterology 2023 - Dr Theresa Hydes - Successful Candidate Report
The Barbers’ Company Award for Trainees in Gastroenterology was introduced in 2021, and has been established by the Barber’s Company in memory of Sir Francis Avery Jones, past Master of the Barbers’ Company and past President of the BSG.
The purpose of the award is to help provide a UK trainee in gastroenterology or hepatology with an opportunity to gain training that would not otherwise be available as part of his/her training programme, or to develop a clinical service that will benefit patients.
We are pleased to include Dr Hydes' report on how the 2023 award fund was used to cover the time to upskill and re-deploy three primary care health care assistance (HCAs) to perform Fibroscan® examination and deliver education related to liver disease, time for administration staff to identify and invite appropriate patients to the clinic and time for patients and the public to help co-develop supporting materials.
