Education and training for healthcare professionals
Providing training and education to healthcare professionals is a vital part of what we do. We believe in sharing our expertise with anyone who may come into contact with patients either with palliative care needs or who are approaching the end of life (as well as the families of such patients). We work with health professionals in the NHS, as well as doing a great deal of training with care homes and other private care providers. The vast majority of our training courses are free of charge, and we also offer accredited qualifications. Please see our available courses below. If you are interested in providing bespoke training for your staff, our Education department can tailor this to your specific needs. Please get in touch to find out more.
