Are you a healthcare professional looking for an understanding of the needs of the LGBTQ+ community in palliative & end-of-life care? St Wilfrid’s Hospice, Chichester has spaces available on its popular ‘Understanding the needs of the LGBTQ+ community in palliative and end-of-life care’ course this April.
The Hospice, which provides palliative and end-of-life care to people across parts of West Sussex and Hampshire, runs training courses for healthcare professionals who are looking to upskill in this type of care.
Through facilitated discussions and shared learning, participants will gain a deeper understanding of the barriers faced by LGBTQ+ communities and practical ways to provide inclusive, affirming and compassionate care.
The comprehensive workshop draws on Hospice UK’s 2023 report “I just want to be me”, the learning framework for LGBTQ+ Care in Later Life (2023) and other evidence-based recommendations.
Delegates will explore the unique experiences and needs of LGBTQ+ people, including trans and gender-diverse individuals, when approaching end of life.
The next available course is being held virtually via MS Teams on Wednesday 15th April from 9.00am until 1.00pm.
