Dear Member,
With the sun making an appearance this week it's a lovely reminder that spring is just around the corner and with the season change, comes Spring Conference! We are very excited at the UCA to connect with you again at the upcoming event. The conference is being held on Saturday 5th March and we encourage you to secure your early bird tickets before 15th February. We have a great line-up of speakers with more names being released soon! Stay up to date with speaker news and features with our upcoming news & views plus social media.
X-RAY CASE STUDY REQUEST
Chiropractors using x-rays we ask that you please share with us any case studies of clinical significance. At the UCA we wish to create a catalogue or library of cases of interest, particularly where radiography has made a positive and significant impact on clinical outcomes. Before submitting them we do of course ask that you follow all data protection guidance in this area and seek the patients permission prior to submission and reassure them that their anonymity will be maintained. If your patient consent form does not include a section for them to complete approving this type of release, this action should be recorded in their case file and the patient will need to sign to approve this disclosure. The case study can be brief and we encourage you to include presenting complaints, any significant exam findings as well as including x-ray images with all personal identifying information removed from the patient data. The UCA with your permission may share some of these case studies with the membership through our various publications.
Please ensure before sending that case studies are redacted so that patient names are removed. If sent with patient details you will be in breach of GDPR.
If you require any support in this matter or to learn more please contact Head Office by emailing contact@unitedchiropractic.org.
We thank you in advance for your input.
FINAL REMINDER
Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) (Amendment) (Coronavirus) (No. 2) Regulations 2021 - Motion to Approve – in the House of Lords
We are aware a good proportion of members would like to take a more active role in opposing the Government’s plans for mandatory Health and Social care vaccinations and mandatory covid passes. In order to assist members in this endeavour, we have drafted template letters that can be sent to your local MP, and the House of Lords. Copies of these letters together with details of how to contact your local MP and member of the House of Lords will be provided by head office upon request.
Yours in Health,
UCA Head Office Team
