Education and Training

Dorothy House Hospice Care is the leading provider of education and training for palliative and end of life care in Bath & North East Somerset, and parts of Somerset and Wiltshire.

Education and development opportunities

Working closely with you, we want to ensure that the very best care is available to everyone facing the end of life. That’s why we provide education and development opportunities which aim to build confidence and competence for anyone working in end of life and palliative care.

A life-limiting illness affects the body, mind, spirit, social wellbeing, the family of the patient, their loved ones and those who care for them. Our education programme for health and social care professionals strives to improve skills, knowledge and attitudes in all of these areas.
