Members can find this article here on CareKnowledgeIncluded in the non-member ticket is one month's access to CareKnowledge.

Professionals registered with Social Work England must record a minimum of 2 different pieces of CPD to meet requirements. At least one of these pieces of CPD must include a peer reflection. You will need to record what you have learnt from discussing your CPD with a peer, your manager or another professional. This discussion can be informal or formal, and can take place in one to one or group settings.

This 90-minute session, facilitated by Dame Lorna Boreland-Kelly, will give you an opportunity to engage in peer reflection to form the basis of this CPD entry.

For those registered with the Scottish Social Services Council, Social Care Wales, the Northern Ireland Social Care Council, or a different professional body, this is still a valuable opportunity to read and reflect on a practice-based case study with peers, and the learning you record can be tailored to reflect your own CPD or CPL requirements.
