Open to all health and social care staff who have sensitive and complex conversations and have already attended an introductory communication skills course.
If you are asking the following questions:
How do I tell someone they won’t manage at home or walk again?
What do I say to someone who asks “Am I dying?"
If so, this workshop is designed to help you identify some strategies and tools to manage these scenarios.
To explore strategies for dealing with complex conversations so these can be applied to practice.

Her palliative care experience has involved working in hospitals, hospices and as a Community Specialist Palliative Care Nurse. More recently her focus and experience has switched to education. Within Hertfordshire she was part of the ABC project delivering palliative and end of life care to care homes throughout the county and then spent 18 months with the palliative care team at Watford General Hospital implementing The Rose Project (to promote dignity and respect at the end of life).
Claire loves working collaboratively with different colleagues across the social and health care sectors and helping individuals apply the principles of palliative care to their setting to promote excellent palliative care for those they care for.
She keeps her hand in clinically by working with her colleagues in the Community Palliative Care team and supporting a support group for patients with Pulmonary Fibrosis to ensure she practices what she teaches!
