‘Supporting Solace’

Exploring palliative and end of life care within the independent social care sector

Thursday 12 October 2017

9:30am – 3:30pm

The Renfield Centre, 260 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4JP

Following the publication of ‘Trees that bend in the wind: Exploring the experiences of front line support workers delivering palliative and end of life care’ in February this year, Scottish Care has been actively progressing the twelve recommendations made in the report.

‘Supporting Solace’ is a practical workshop designed to explore the realities of delivering palliative and end of life care in care homes and care at home organisations in more detail, and to also learn about new national and local developments in this area.  We will also be launching our latest Scottish Care PEOLC resources.

There is no charge to attend this event.   However for operational reasons we may charge those who have booked and do not attend a fee of £20.00.  If after you have booked you are unable to attend please inform us as soon as possible.

Over the coming weeks we will be sharing updates and information on our Scottish Care website http://scottishcare.org and Twitter @scottishcare using the hashtag #supportsolace
