DESCRIPTION:\n	The Safer Healthcare and Biosafety Network has launched a
	 joint campaign\, Protecting Healthcare Workers: Safer Handling of Hazardo
	us Medicinal Products\, to raise awareness of the dangers of occupational 
	exposure to hazardous medicinal products.\n\n\n\n	This webinar will explor
	e the frontline clinical challenges shaping risk today\, as well as the gu
	idance\, education and cultural change needed to protect healthcare worker
	s for the future. Hosted by the Safer Healthcare and Biosafety Network (SH
	BN) with presentations from:\n\n\n\n	Sam Toland\, Nurse Consultant in Canc
	er Care and Lead SACT Nurse\, Worcestershire Acute Hospitals Trust\n\n\n\n
		Alison Simons\, Senior Lecturer in Nursing and Midwifery at Birmingham Ci
	ty University\n\n\n\n	Sam Toland will draw on her experience leading chemo
	therapy services to examine how the clinical landscape has changed for nur
	ses handling hazardous medicinal products. She will discuss the growth in 
	treatment volumes\, the increasing complexity of SACT regimes\, and the im
	plications of the growing shift towards subcutaneous administration\, a ro
	ute that eases capacity pressures but introduces new and harder-to-control
	 exposure risks for nursing staff.\n\n\n\n	Alison Simons will address the 
	policy and practice environment in which these clinical pressures play out
	. She will discuss the current state of UK guidance on the safe handling o
	f HMPs and what meaningful improvements to education and training look lik
	e in practice. She will also consider the barriers that prevent safer prac
	tice taking hold across healthcare settings\, even where guidance exists.\
	n\n\n\n	This session is intended for nurses\, pharmacists\, oncology healt
	hcare professionals\, safety leads\, educators and policymakers with an in
	terest in the safe handling of hazardous medicinal products and the system
	ic changes needed to better protect the healthcare workforce.\n\n\n\n	Regi
