The Child and Adolescent Learning Disability Psychiatric Network (CALDPN) Residential Conference
13-14 May 2010
Sedgebrook Hall, Northampton
St Andrew’s Healthcare is privileged to be hosting the Annual Residential Conference of the Child and Adolescent Learning Disability Psychiatry Network (CALDPN) at Northampton on Thursday 13 and Friday 14 May 2010.
Aimed at psychiatric professionals in the field of child and adolescent learning disability, we look forward to utilising the combined expertise of those present and to sharing examples of good practice.
To reflect the increasing legislative recognition of the needs of young people with learning disabilities, this two day national conference will focus on models of service development, with discussion geared towards evolving a toolkit for specialised services.
The full programme of lectures, workshops and posters has particular emphasis on challenging behaviours and the interface with the criminal justice system.
Delegates will also have the opportunity to visit the adolescent inpatient secure unit at Malcolm Arnold House on the evening of Thursday 13 May if they wish to do so.
The venue for this event is Sedgebrook Hall, a Victorian country house set in landscaped grounds and formerly part of the Althorp Estate. It is within easy access of the M1 and M6 motorways.
We hope you can join us and look forward to seeing you in the summer.
Conference fee: £120.00 - £260.00 per person depending on attendance
