Communication in End of Life Care

About this module

The current health and social care agenda is focused on the need to ensure staff working in these sectors are competent in their communication skills.

This short course will refresh your skills or provide you with some insight surrounding sensitive and responsive communication with patients, carer and relatives, other agencies and health care professionals. We’ll encourage a collaborative, sensitive approach to working compassionately and effectively in end of life care.
