End Of Life Care

This course considers the aims and principles of good; dignified end of life care through the National End of Life Strategy and to consider how factors affect people's views and communication about death and dying. End of life care affects us all; at all ages; the living; the dying and the bereaved. Often care is poor or inconsistent and we have a responsibility to do better. More than half a million people die each year; and many live with a life expectancy of less than a year at any one time. This course focuses on best practice and evidence-based care.
