hearing from Sports Doctor and ex-Olympian, Dr Rachel Harris on the FPHI and will take a deeper dive into Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S). We will also hear from an athlete who has lived experience with RED-S.It's not just for Sports Physiotherapists working in a team. Local physiotherapy clinics and emergency departments are well placed to identify potential concerns with energy availability contributing to sports injury, and safety net to the appropriate supports.
This lecture aims to improve your understanding of the needs of female athletes, implications and how to identify RED-S, the role of the Sports Dietician in managing RED-S and eating disorder, your role as a physio in working in a shared model of care in this context, and the lived experience of an athlete.
The format will be two lectures followed by a panel Q and A with plenty of time between to grab a drink and catch up with colleagues. Light food will be provided.
