September is Blood Cancer Awareness Month. In the run up to September are you able to help us bring this free course to the attention of GPs in your area?

The Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) plays a major role in keeping GPs informed to maximise positive health outcomes in local communities.

Early diagnosis, appropriate testing and referral improves blood cancer outcomes

Leukaemia CARE has worked with the RGCP to develop an online training course to help GPs recognise the signs and clusters of often vague symptoms that may indicate a patient has blood cancer.

These often vague symptoms of leukaemia are also common to many unrelated problems and can make leukaemia difficult to recognise.

Our two 30-minute, free of charge, CPD modules on blood cancers will help GPs to:

•better understand and recognise the symptoms of blood cancers

•identify potential cases of blood cancer

•refer patients for further tests more quickly

•make informed decisions
