The At Work Partnership - Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) refresher training

1 November 2023 – HAVS Standard refresher
2 November 2023 – HAVS Advanced refresher

Course tutor: Dr Roger Cooke, consultant in occupational medicine, and a leading expert in hand–arm vibration syndrome.

Join The At Work Partnership to develop your skills and refresh your knowledge on managing HAVs cases with their online HAVS refresher course! Tailored specifically for different levels of experience, the standard or advanced course provides an in-depth update on the requirements for health surveillance for a workforce exposed to hand-transmitted vibration, and in the diagnosis and management of an individual with HAVS.

Who is the training designed for? 
Both days are designed for OH professionals who have attended the Faculty of Occupational Medicine approved two-day HAVS training course. In order to undertake statutory tier 3 or tier 4 HAVS assessments, all OH professionals need to have an OH qualification, so this is a prerequisite.

The training is tailored as follows:
- The standard refresher course is for OH advisers and physicians who infrequently undertake HAVS surveillance.
- The advanced refresher course is for OH advisers and physicians who are regularly undertaking HAVS health surveillance.

Benefits of attending:

            Minimise risk of progression
