“Thank you. I enjoyed the course. It was very well taught and I learned a lot”
Quality, End of Life Care, should not be dependent on your illness even though there is evidence that diagnostic overshadowing is adding further challenges to those with a learning disability. This 3-hour course explores what everybody can expect from a person centred approach but focuses on the additional issues people with a learning disability face. This course is suitable for all carers involved in End of Life Care or supporting those with a learning disability but is ideal for those involved in both.
