For Endocrine Nurses

How can we help?

Welcome to all you wonderful endocrine nurses!

Please have a look around our website which is full of useful information about our conditions. If you have any questions about managing parathyroid patients we’re always happy to have a chat. We want to work with you so do get in touch if you have any ideas.

Order leaflets

You can view or download our Patient information leaflets  which are all available for clinics to order and are sent out free of charge. ( Of course, if you would like to donate you can do so here). To order, please email Heather with your details or fill in our online order form and return to her by email or to Parathyroid UK, 40 Old London Road, Hythe, KENT, CT21 DQ.

Conferences

We are always at the annual SfE BES and BAETS meetings and the SfE Endocrine Nurses Update where we are often involved in training workshops. We have former nurses on our team and we’d love to see you at our stand so please do come and say hello.

Please email or call Liz on 01342 316315
