Overview
The EUROSPINE Diploma in Interprofessional Spine Care (EDISC) is an education initiative aimed at developing expertise and empowering spine care professionals of all specialties.
Given the need for continuous professional development in spine care, EDISC provides health care practitioners engaged in non-surgical and surgical care with an interprofessional, harmonised and evidence-based curriculum on patient-centred collaborative care.
This people-centred education activity, developed by an interprofessional team of experts with guidance from medical education specialists, promotes collaborative care using evidence-based best practice to improve patient outcomes.
