The Program of Experience in the Palliative Approach (PEPA) have released new online learning modules to support knowledge and skills of general practitioners (GPs) practice for Palliative Care Delivery.
The free resources include
six modules of learning and topics include:
- Principles of palliative care
- Communicating with people with life-limiting illnesses
- Advance Care Planning
- Assessing and managing symptoms
- Assessing and managing pain
- Awareness of self-care
The online modules of learning which can be
accessed here, will be supported further with case study-based face-to-face workshops nationally. These case study workshops will allow GPs to come together for two hours and discuss Palliative Care case studies with local Palliative Care experts.
