Education and Learning

Face-to-face education is back and we are able to offer our full programme of courses.
We are still observing certain precautions in our training rooms aimed at keeping staff and visitors as safe as possible while we emerge from the pandemic.
This page describes the full list of courses that are available.
We still offer refreshments (tea, coffee and water) in the training rooms and social distancing is observed.
If you have any concerns or require further information please contact the Education Department on 01590 646445 or e-mail education@oakhavenhospice.co.uk and we will be pleased to help.
Oakhaven's approach to learning
Oakhaven’s approach to education is that knowledge is best shared. We welcome support from other specialties and clinical colleagues to further our knowledge and improve patient care.
We also provide a thorough education programme to support clinical colleagues in providing good quality end-of-life care.
We can also arrange bespoke training for providers should you wish.
If you’d like to learn more or have any queries please don’t hesitate to call 01590 646445.
Courses
Oakhaven provides courses covering a variety of subjects within palliative and end-of-life care. These courses are available for all healthcare professionals in our community.
We endeavour to make our sessions friendly and informative, with the content being varied and providing a relaxed approach.
We believe education in end-of-life care is crucial to providing quality patient care. We work closely with all healthcare professionals to improve the quality of palliative and end-of-life care for our community.
On the “shared knowledge is best” ethos there are no charges for any of the courses other than ACST where there are licencing and other external costs that we incur. We want to make education available to as many people as possible and therefore view it as part of our charitable purpose.
We do not believe cost should be a barrier to accessing education and improving patient care. Should you wish to make a donation to help cover some of the costs it is always gratefully received.
We look forward to welcoming you and your colleagues.
