St Barnabas House Education Programme 2019 – 2020 Sharing knowledge and learning together
Hi everyone,
‘Sharing knowledge and learning together’
I’m delighted to introduce our latest Education Programme 2019-20, which is packed
with something for everyone.
The programme has been influenced by the people we care for and it is vital that our
palliative care education reflects what clinicians, in all settings, need to enhance the
care they deliver.
Our disease specific study days, caring for people with cancer, heart, renal and liver
failure and dementia have continued to be successful, bringing together professionals
working in the acute, community and palliative care sectors. We are keen to reach
out and support everyone, and in facilitating the study day entitled ‘A different
ending: addressing inequalities in end of life care’ we will focus on how to meet the
needs of individual people from all communities. An important part of our Education
Programme has been inviting people to the classroom to share their stories about
living with their illness and the support their families and friends have needed. This
year we are facilitating a fascinating study day led by people in our care and their
families and friends entitled ‘An ice cream at midnight’, please see page 20. We are
also running a new two day accredited course ‘Awareness of End of Life Care (Level 2)’
and ‘End of Life Care (Level 3)’ for Health and Social Care Support Workers, please
see page 7.
We are working closely with our colleagues in the Education Team at St Wilfrid’s
Hospice (Chichester) as well as other hospices in the South East, local NHS Trusts,
NHS Health Education England working across Kent, Surrey and Sussex (HEEKSS)
and NHS Coastal West Sussex Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG).
We have been fortunate in securing some funding from HEEKSS and the CCG to
allow you to access some of our events free of charge.
Our training is delivered in different formats from short lunchtime sessions through
to full ten day modules (First degree and Master’s degree).
We appreciate you are very busy, however, we all need to stop and think about
looking after ourselves as well as keeping up to date with our knowledge ready for
revalidation.
Thank you for all the great work you are doing and we look forward to seeing you
soon to...
‘Share knowledge and learn together’
Kind regards,
Liz Watson (Head of Clinical Education)
PS. Yes the flapjacks are still good.
