Event Description

Build confidence in acute assessment and coordinated care

When an immunotherapy patient presents acutely unwell, your team needs to establish what matters, respond to uncertainty and access the right support. Work through practical cases and pathway examples to strengthen your approach. Key learning outcomes include:

Recognising acutely unwell immunotherapy patients and identifying red flags requiring urgent action

Differentiating possible immune-related toxicity from infection, disease progression and other treatment effects

Discussing difficult presentations and approaches to acute assessment

Assessing severity, initiating immediate care and recognising when specialist escalation is needed

Comparing approaches to assessment, admission and escalation across acute oncology services

Learning from Nottingham’s experience of developing a coordinated immunotherapy urgent-care pathway

Exploring approaches to improving communication, specialist links and continuity across urgent-care pathways

Reviewing emerging immunotherapy evidence and its implications for acute oncology practice

Drawing on good practice to identify practical next steps for your service
