Caring for someone at the end of their life is among the most important and sensitive work anyone can do. Done well, it allows people to die with dignity, comfort and as much control as possible, in the place and manner they would choose. This course explains what end of life care is, the principles of good palliative and end of life care, and the frameworks and people involved, so that workers can support individuals and those close to them with confidence and compassion.
It then covers the practical and human sides of care: honest, sensitive communication; advance care planning and respecting a person’s choices and wishes; recognising and helping to manage pain and other symptoms; and understanding the changes in the last days of life. It also addresses care after death, supporting families and those who are bereaved, and — importantly — looking after your own wellbeing in emotionally demanding work. It is an awareness-level course that helps every worker provide kind, person-centred care at the end of life.
