DISC team profile
Midlands Leadership Academy are supporting the use of the DiSC tool to support the development of teams. The use of this tool will help the individual team members understand their own preferences and provides a baseline for supporting wider understanding across a team. DiSC is self-assessment psychometric tool delivered through the Wiley “Everything DiSC” system in partnership with The Fruitful Toolbox. This tool uses adaptive testing to ensure results are consistent with the model and has high levels of reliability, validity and credibility.
DiSC profiles describe human behaviour in various situations and provides additional insight into yourself and your colleagues, including how you interact as a team. If you and your team, require this type of input to help strengthen your communication and individual /team awareness then do get in touch and we can discuss this offer with you. Further contact us by email midlands@leadershipacademy.nhs.uk

We want to encourage Primary Care colleagues working within general practice, community pharmacy, dentistry, optometry or any other care service to register for coaches and mentors by clicking on this link (https://midlands.leadershipacademy.nhs.uk/our-offers/coaching-and-mentoring-2/).
The coaching sessions will help you to strengthen your leadership by creating space for you to stand back, slow-down and reflect if you want to:
- appraise your decision-making in the midst of the current crisis
- find ways to create time and space to consider how to lead the transition into the future state
- Providing you with the opportunity to enhance your decision making, to ‘hold steady’ in and through this crisis and to build and maintain personal resilience in order to help you effectively lead with a compassionate and inclusive style

Remote Consultations elearning programme now available

The session is designed to complement existing specialty and professional specific resources available from elfh and other education platforms.
Remote Consultations highlights the process of setting up a remote consultation clinic and the pitfalls in this environment with specific emphasis on appropriate patient selection, plus the benefits and limitations of remote consultations.
On completion of the programme learners will achieve several skills including:
- Describing the benefits and limitations of a remote consultation
- Describing requirements needed and discussing patient selection
- Describing measures in ensuring patient remote consultation
A suite of resources for trainers and trainees is also available for learners to access, including relevant links to websites, videos and papers.

Online learning to help stop the over-medication of people with a learning disability and autistic people (STOMP).
To mark Learning Disability Awareness Week, HEE is pleased to launch, with NHSEI, MindEd and Experts by Experience, new online learning to help stop the over-medication of people with a learning disability and autistic people (STOMP).
People with a learning disability and autistic people are more likely to be given Psychotropic medicines than others. These medicines are right for some as they can help people stay safe and well. However, sometimes there are other ways of helping people and they may need less medicine or none at all.
There are 6 online learning sessions available for health and care professionals, carers, and family members. They explain the meaning of STOMP, discuss opportunities to speak up if they feel someone in their care is receiving inappropriate medication and highlight how they can access reliable information about medicines. Each session can be completed at an individual’s own pace taking approximately 30 minutes to complete.
To see the impact of STOMP, watch Shane’s story. Shane had his medication reviewed and reduced, this has helped him have a lot more energy and live the life he wants.
