Palliative Care Emergencies – May

Our specialist Knowledge Exchange Team delivers high quality education through interactive training sessions. Our study sessions and courses are continually reviewed and updated, with new subjects added regularly to provide the most up-to-date guidance and expert advice, and to facilitate topical and diverse discussions amongst health care professionals.

This session will help you to keep your skills and knowledge up-to-date so that you can provide support to patients and their loved ones, particularly in being prepared for such emergencies.

The Palliative Care Emergencies session will cover:

  • An update and refresher on the common palliative care emergencies
  • MSCC
  • Neutropenic sepsis
  • Hypercalcaemia
  • SVCO
  • Haemorrhage

This session will be delivered online by St Catherine’s Hospice. You would need to have access to a computer or mobile device with internet connection, a webcam and a microphone. Please note attendees must log into the event via the invite received from St Catherine’s Hospice 15 minutes before the start.
