Learn with us
At Heart of Kent Hospice we have a reputation for delivering first-class training to other health and social care professionals, including the NHS, care homes, the voluntary sector and local authorities.
Our mission is to improve end-of-life care for our community.
We are committed to sharing best practice to help raise standards of end-of-life care, so that every person with a terminal illness in our catchment area has the support they and their family needs, whether they are a patient of ours or under someone else’s care. We offer a variety of courses that are held face to face and virtually.
All of our courses are planned and facilitated by our team of clinical or community specialists and include a range of learning approaches including theory, discussion, reflection and participation.
