Share the RATE with your patients
In addition to the eLearning module for health professionals, RANZCOG has developed the Raising Awareness Tool for Endometriosis (RATE), a quick-to-use electronic resource for primary care health professionals and their patients to help identify and assess endometriosis – and endometriosis-associated symptoms – to reach a faster diagnosis and achieve more effective management of symptoms.Last modified: Tuesday, 20 October 2020, 11:11 AM
