Managing The Older Driver Problem
Lecturer: Julie Gandolfi CPsychol, BA(Hons) MSc PhD PGCPSE
Older drivers are a growing population and are increasingly reliant on their vehicles. Physical, visual, cognitive and perceptual declines can develop gradually but have serious effects on driver risk. Self-awareness of the onset of age-related problems is critical to maximising older driver safety, and the promotion of active and appropriate self-regulation holds the most realistic key to managing the older driver "problem".

Contact Lenses for DOs – DOs for Contact Lenses
Lecturer: Andrew Symons FBDO CL
What should an Optician (a non CL qualified/certified Dispensing Optician) know about contact lens types and materials? What are the pros and cons of contact lenses versus glasses? What choices can you give a potential lens wearer without ‘treading on the toes’ of the Optometrist or Contact Lens Optician? After all you may feel you are not qualified to provide advice. In fact when should you advise a patient on serious contact lens complications? What protocols can be shared across the wider practice team to enable them to provide support for lens wearers and be aware of risk factors for non-compliance in lens wear? This lecture “Contact Lenses for DO’s – DO’s for Contact Lenses” is primarily aimed at Opticians. It aims to answer the questions outlined above and help you refresh your skills and knowledge on the GOC core competencies relating to contact lenses for Dispensing Opticians. Conversations about contact lenses can happen at any time and anywhere in the practice and beyond. Are you confident that the staff that perform delegated functions have sufficient knowledge to be able to answer the questions that can arise in practice? Following this virtual lecture you may wish to share this information with the wider practice team and support staff. Some of the advice and protocols (where not already adopted) can be applied immediately and may help you and your practice meet the needs of your patients for many years to come.
