Investment in Education
The Earl Mountbatten Hospice invests in the education, training and development of staff and volunteers to enable the high quality of specialist palliative care is delivered to our patients and their carers.
Palliative care is not based exclusively in the hospice setting, therefore staff from the NHS and private care sectors can access education and training facilitated by the Earl Mountbatten Hospice.

The Education department offers a range of opportunities through,
The Palliative Care and End of Life Study Days

Reflective Practice/Portfolio Development
Links to other training opportunities
