An innovative approach to end of life care education
UCLPartners’ have developed educational materials as a resource for facilitators to teach End of Life Care (EOLC) to non-specialist staff across all health and care settings. The materials aim to increase staff confidence across areas including recognition, communication and physical care, for those in their last weeks and days of life. The materials centre on short films and utilise a reflective session to engage staff in discussion about what is important for people at the end of their life. The first film, Milestones, depicts a patient’s experience in an acute hospital, and the other, You Matter, shows the experience of a man dying in his own home.
