How to find education/training in your area

First, contact your employer’s workforce/training lead who should be able to tell you what’s happening.

If you work for a large organisation or, for example, for a small care home that’s part of a larger group, it’s likely that they will provide training.

Watch out for national conferences on relevant websites including
Dignity in Dying
Alzheimer’s Society
National Council for Palliative Care
Help the Hospices
The events section on this website

Contact organisations in your area: higher and further education institutes, for instance, can provide full courses or individual modules.

Macmillan nurses have a teaching remit.

*Hospice*s often run training courses.

Your Local Authority and Primary Care Trust will provide some training.

Journals related to your area of practice will run adverts for local and national courses. Make sure any training-related flyers and e-mails get circulated and pinned up on staff notice boards.

To find out about further and higher education courses relevant to end of life care, visit the UCAS website
