The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

In view of the British Society of Gastroenterology guidelines' suggestion that inflammatory bowel disease nurse specialists develop and lead teaching plans for patients (Carter et al, 2004), the authors offer their experience of developing and implementing a colitis education and support programme (CESP). Issues related to recruitment, the venue,group types and size, the length, number and frequency of meetings, the qualifications and desired attributes of facilitators, and maintaining the consistency and quality of the programme delivery and resources are discussed.
