ProTrainings Europe has launched a brand new End of Life course that learners can complete entirely online. End of Life care looks at special needs when dealing with service users at the end of their life. This course covers the core principles of end of life care and many other subjects.
End of Life Care
End of Life care can perhaps best be described as the care of someone who either has a terminal condition or is in the last few days, weeks, months or even years of their life and it is also known as palliative care. Approximately 500,000 people die each year in England, and this figure will continue to rise due to the increase in population. It is widely accepted that most people die at an advanced age, and as people get older, their health needs generally become more complicated. However, there are also estimated to be around 40,000 children and young people in England living with a life-shortening or life-threatening health condition.

How the course works
Learners watch a series of informative videos, then complete a series of knowledge review questions. Once all of the modules have been completed, there is a final test and on successful completion, a certificate will be available (by email or if required, a printed option). Thanks to the innovative ProTrainings learning platform, students can start and stop the course as often as required across any of their desktop or mobile devices.
