Champions mentor peers\, influence care delivery\, and maintain elevated care standards through ongoing governance and learning. \nWe suggest care providers have a Champion in each relevant topic area. To ensure quality and focus\, each individual may only be a Champion in up to two topic areas: \nThe End of Life CHAMPION course will enable Care professionals to take on the role of Champion within their organisation for this topic. The Champion will have a clear understanding of local and national guidance and legislation for and will cascade this information amongst care teams\, improving the safety and quality of care for individuals. \nLearning Outcomes:\n• Define the role of an End of Life Care Champion and explain how this role can enhance the quality of care and support within the organisation.\n• Describe relevant local and national guidance on best practice in end of life care.\n• Define the term “governance” and explain its relevance to ensuring safe\, person-centred end of life care.\n• Apply the principles of SMART goal setting to improve care planning and delivery in end of life situations.\n• Differentiate between levels of support available for individuals at the end of life\, including physical\, emotional\, spiritual and cultural needs\, and apply this knowledge to individual care plans.\n• Analyse how errors or lapses in communication\, assessment or intervention can impact end of life care and identify strategies to reduce these risks.\n• Identify individual factors such as symptoms\, co-morbidities\, personal beliefs and preferences that influence care needs\, and analyse their impact on quality of life at the end of life.\n• Evaluate the actions required when a concern or safeguarding issue arises in end of life care\, including correct reporting and recording procedures.\n• Assess the importance of recognising and responding to signs of distress or changes in condition\, and evaluate when and how to escalate care needs.\n• Develop an approach for regular review of end of life care plans that meets best practice requirements\, and design strategies to support individuals and families in managing care with dignity\, comfort and respect. \nFind out more and apply here \nNote – This is an application\, not a booking.
