About

Designed by clinicians for clinicians, our new Clinical Skills Update (CSU) sessions provide you with skills you can immediately implement into your daily practice to enhance patient outcomes.

The CSUs have been built with you in mind and will support your growth and enhance your skills regardless of your level of palliative care experience.

Which CSU learning experience is going to be best for me?

We recognise that healthcare professionals have different levels of experience and involvement in their day to day care of people with palliative care needs. So to ensure you find a learning experience suitable for you, we are offering two levels of CSU - ‘ENHANCED’ and ‘ADVANCED’.  It’s your choice!

For those of you with a growing interest in palliative and end of life care and keen to increase your core knowledge, skills and capabilities then the ENHANCED CSU will be for you.

For those of you already developing your interest and expertise in palliative and end-of-life care and wanting to consolidate your knowledge and extend your skills and capabilities, then the ADVANCED CSU is for you.

The sessions will be delivered online - a link will be sent to registrants closer to the event.
