Education

Helping others to give good palliative care
To help to make sure everyone who needs palliative care gets a good service, Joseph Weld & Trimar Hospice and CancerCare Dorset Trust participates in the training of health care colleagues and those who work with patients in any capacity.

Our aim is to help to improve palliative care for all.

We run annual courses, study days and other events. Some are open to all and some are restricted to medical and nursing colleagues.

Two of our courses held in Dorchester are accredited with Bournemouth University at diploma level.

We accept placements of social worker students from Southampton University and will consider similar applications from others.

Special courses can be designed to meet your needs, especially for Nursing Homes.
