The Woolf Institute’s Randeree Religious Diversity in End of Life Care training aims to empower clinical and non-clinical staff to enhance the quality and impact of the care they provide to patients and relatives.
This one-day training session will include a combination of presentations, video case studies, discussions, and opportunities to ask questions on end of life care in Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. Participants will also receive a copy of our Religious Diversity in End of Life Care Handbook which the training draws upon and can be used for future learning.
By undertaking training, practitioners working in end of life care can become more knowledgeable and confident offering care, empathy and compassion to Muslim, Jewish, and Christian patients who are approaching the end of life. This is achieved by staff better understanding the religious, social and cultural practices that surround death and dying.
The Woolf Institute is an interfaith research institute, based in Cambridge, which studies and aims to improve relations between Muslims, Jews, and Christians. Through research, education, and public engagement we seek to better understand these faiths, build trust between people of different faiths, and increase understanding and cooperation in society between people of faith and those with other beliefs and worldviews.
