DDN/FDAP WORKSHOPS
We are pleased to offer the followingworkshop:
18 JUNE 2013
THE MALMAISON HOTEL, BIRMINGHAM
The report of the Mid Staffordshire inquiry and the proceedings of the
Health Select Committee have meant that CQC is re-evaluating its own
approach to inspection. CQC’s own strategic review came up with proposals
which will be out for consultation soon.
SOWHAT CANWE EXPECT FOR THE FUTURE?
Firstly
, each sector may be differently inspected. So howwill this impact upon
the drug and alcohol treatment sector?
Secondly
, having completed the first inspection of your service what will
this year’s inspection look like? Inevitably there will be a focus on some of
the outcomes not previously inspected, some of which may be challenging,
so how do you need prepare?
This coursewill look at
the strategic direction CQC is taking andwill specifically
help you prepare for your next inspection by looking in depth at specific
outcomes not yet inspected.

Sarah Bowen
is the lead author of
Mindfulness-Based Relapse
Prevention for Addictive Behaviours, a Clinicians Guide
. This
model has at its centre a non-judgemental, compassionate approach
toward ourselves and our experiences. The practices taught are
intended to foster increased awareness of triggers, habitual patterns,
and seemingly “automatic” reactions. These practices support the
ability to pause, observe present experience, and bring awareness to
the range of choices before us in every moment. Clients begin to
change their relationship to discomfort, learning to recognise and
increase the capacity for challenging emotional and physical
experiences, responding to them skillfully, rather than reactively.
This five day intensive training
will offer theoretical and
empirical foundations underlying the programme, as well as the
opportunity to experience MBRP from the perspective of a group
participant. Trainees will learn to facilitate the core practices of the
programme in a supportive and interactive environment.
The Training is designed for professionals
with a regular
personal meditation practice who want to gain personal and
professional experience in teaching a mindfulness-based approach
focused in the area of relapse prevention for addictive behaviours.
Training is strictly limited to a maximum number of 20.
Course Teaching: £650.
Half board accommodation: £41.50 per night.
To book, please call Devin on 01985 843789 to assess the courses
suitability to your needs and circumstances. Enquiries about future
training courses for beginners to mindfulness are also welcome.
