Reflective Practice of Procedural Holding

The Reflective Practice of Procedural holding group was formed off the back of the Procedural Holding Symposium research collaboration (Nov 2023) and RCH's Procedural Holding Research and Education Committee (PHREC). PHREC was established to coordinate research and education activities related to procedural holding within the RCH with multidisciplinary membership. Reflective Practice of Procedural Holding has now taken the reigns to facilitate a community of practice on the topic. For more information or to join, click here.
