These are materials from a course that took place on Wednesday 30 September 2026. The slides will be available to view until 30 March 2027.
This session will support healthcare professionals in developing confidence in managing common palliative care symptoms and clinical challenges. Delegates will explore practical approaches to pain and symptom management, including nausea, bowel problems, and complex pain. Participants will also gain confidence in anticipatory prescribing, the use of anticipatory medicines, and recognising palliative care emergencies requiring prompt assessment and action. The overall aim is for participants to increase their confidence in managing patients with advanced illness and become more familiar with commonly used approaches in palliative care.
Topics Include:
- Pain and symptom management
