About the CPD course
The event will give an insight into the role of a physiotherapist working with the elderly population.

National Back Exchange, referred to as “NBE”, is a charity whose goal is to develop, disseminate, and promote evidence-based best practice in all aspects of manual handling and back care. A multidisciplinary group for those interested in backcare and prevention of work- related musculoskeletal problems. NBE promotes exchange of information, develops and promotes common standards of training. The strength of the NBE is drawn from its multi-disciplinary membership. It is run on a voluntary basis by a National Board of Trustees elected from the membership.
