Course summary

This course is aimed at nursing and allied health professionals providing universal, targeted and specialist palliative care in primary, community or secondary care services as well as those caring for people living with life limiting illnesses across the age spectrum. It provides you with the opportunity to consolidate and enhance your knowledge and understanding of the philosophy, principles and practices of palliative and end of life care.

The course is aligned with the NHS England ‘Career pathway, core capabilities and education framework for palliative and end of life care’.
It has been developed in partnership with specialist palliative care services across Calderdale and Kirklees.
Learning will be focussed upon enhancing your knowledge, behaviours and capabilities required to drive high quality care for people with palliative and end of life care needs, whilst also encompassing the care and support of communities, families and carers in a variety of health and social care settings.

Throughout your studies, emphasis will be placed on person-centred, holistic assessment and the development of muti-professional, multi-agency care and management plans from which optimum and evidence-based palliative and end of life care can be provided. Legal and ethical issues will also be examined within the context of palliative and end of life care and their implications for practice.
