Gain knowledge of the basics of palliative care
No charge for these Education Sessions for Care assistants who have an interest in palliative care, on completion of this course the attendees will receive a certificate of attendance.
This education provides the critical principle, practical knowledge and foundational skills of palliative care to care assistants and home-based support workers - but anyone can attend who has not had Palliative care experience and would like to feel they have knowledge in their role. It is provided as a "stepping stone" to the more comprehensive Fundamentals of Palliative Care.
