Women's Health Pathways in Urgent Care

Presented by Dr Sneha Wadhwani, this webinar will help those working in the urgent care setting manage common women's health presentations with more confidence.

Learning outcomes

• Outline key red-flag features in acute women’s-health presentations including pelvic pain, signs of pelvic or genital infections, heavy or unstable vaginal bleeding, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, and early pregnancy concerns to support timely identification of conditions requiring urgent assessment or escalation.
• Define evidence-based first-line management for urgent presentations such as acute pelvic pain, suspected infection, heavy or prolonged vaginal bleeding, dysfunctional uterine bleeding and pregnancy-related complications, while selecting investigations and stabilisation steps appropriate for the urgent-care setting.
• Describe a structured communication approach to safety-netting and follow-up strategies that enhance patient understanding and reduce clinical risk when managing time-critical presentations, including those involving uncertain pregnancy status, possible ectopic pregnancy, evolving infection or significant bleeding.
