About This Event

An event titled Beyond the Surface will take place at the Thackray Museum of Medicine in Leeds on 8 October 2026.

Join us at the Thackray Museum for an engaging free to attend event & workshop exploring the challenges of pressure ulcer litigation.

Hear from the experts and get your questions answered during the morning presentations where the following topics will be covered:

The Science of Surfaces | Understanding therapeutic support surfaces and key considerations when choosing a surface.

Coroner’s Court Preparation | Preparing clinicians attending coroner’s courts to provide evidence.

Coroner’s Court Experience | What is a coroner’s court experience like for a clinician?

After lunch, there will be a live mock-up of a coroner’s court, to experience first-hand what it would be like to attend and give evidence. This is a great opportunity for clinicians to experience the atmosphere of a coroner’s court in a less stressful environment.

We are very excited to introduce our brilliant speakers:

Rachel Apsey, Group Chief Executive and Registered Nurse, Medstrom

Sarah Jones, Paediatric Tissue Viability Nurse, Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust

Alison Parnham, BSc (Hons), MSc Health and Social Care - Clinical Nurse Specialist in Tissue Viability.

Please note:

The event allows attendees to gain 5 hours CPD-certified towards revalidation.

Delegate spaces are limited to 2-3 individuals per Trust.

That the views and perspectives of the speakers are their own and not necessarily shared by Medstrom. We aim to provide a platform to share these views in a respectful manner.

Attendance is restricted for clinical personnel only and we hold the right to decline applications to attend from industry personnel.
