Nurse Development

The PCRS-UK offers a range of resources to support its nurse members with their personal development from our Skills document which helps nurses work out their training needs based on their role within the practice to a series of online case histories which can assist members with personal reflection and offers the option to produce a certificate of completion to include in PDP files.

We also signpost members to other training providers who are able to offer courses from one-day courses in spirometry to postgraduate diplomas and degrees.

Primary Care Respiratory Society UK Skills Levels Document
The development of minimum, intermediate and advanced skills set to support practice nurses assess their own skill level in respiratory medicine and secure appropriate training and support to enable them to deliver optimal respiratory care. This Skill Levels document is available for members to download here.

PCRS-UK Case Histories
We offer you a chance to review your own knowledge and skills in managing patients with respiratory and/or allergy related disorders. You can work through the case studies independently as part of your own personal professional development or as part of a group in your practice. Each case history is divided into three different steps accessed by clicking the link at the bottom of each page.

Once you have completed your case history you will have the opportunity to produce a certificate of completion which is provided in print-ready electronic PDF format for your personal development portfolio.
