All medical practices across Northamptonshire close one Wednesday afternoon each month from 12:30 PM onwards for Protected Learning Time (PLT). This initiative is designed to provide healthcare professionals with a dedicated period to focus on their professional development.
During PLT, healthcare staff engage in various educational activities, including learning about the latest clinical developments, receiving updates on current guidance and best practices, and sharing experiences and knowledge with their colleagues. This time is crucial for ensuring that healthcare providers remain up-to-date with the ever-evolving medical field, ultimately enhancing the quality of care they deliver to patients.
If you require medical assistance or care during these PLT sessions, please contact NHS 111 for non-emergency advice or visit the Corby Urgent Care Centre for more immediate needs.
