We were happy for the engagement from our audience during the last of our three ACCT Let’s talk… webinars – this time with a focus on the Self and how to handle the delicate subject of intimacy and sexuality when somehow impaired. In fact, in answer to our question, 74% of our audience thought that the main barrier to seeking help for sexual dysfunction is embarrassment or the perceived taboo surrounding the subject. Which is why we think we need to talk about it.
The International Spinal Cord Society (ISCoS) promotes the highest standard of care for men, women and children throughout the world who have suffered a spinal cord injury (SCI). Wellspect is proud to announce their partnership with ISCoS and look forward to collaborating on our shared vision, to make a real difference and to foster education, research and clinical excellence.
On June 17th, the third in our series of three ACCT Let’s talk… webinars took place with the purpose of Advancing Continence Care Together from a holistic perspective. Again, renown lecturers and specialists helped us take a closer look at bladder and bowel management, this time with a focus on the Self with Professor Anton Emmanuel, Dr. Jalesh Panicker and Mrs Collette Haslam.
