As a person approaches the end of their life palliative or end of life care is crucial. Carers strive to keep the patient comfortable and as pain free as possible; while also providing important emotional; psychological and social support. They must develop a unique set of skills to provide this support to both the patient and their families. This course provides a comprehensive overview of end of life care. The course begins by giving a general overview of end of life care along with outlining the roles and responsibilities of carers. The course also reviews the feelings and emotions that run high during this difficult time and tells you how to provide the type of support different patients need.
