Session Overview
In this session, looking at the needs of those informally caring for people approaching the end of life, we will consider how to:
- Recognise and identify carers, who may not always recognise themselves as carers.
- Be aware of the importance of ’checking-in’ with carers.
- Have a conversation about carers’ needs & facilitate their own plan for meeting them.
- Discuss available resources and signpost carers to them.
Learning Outcomes
• Build confidence to proactively discuss the caring role, using ‘Simple Skills Secrets’ communication skills model or equivalent
• help carers recognise themselves in that role
• Raise awareness of importance of ‘checking-in’ with carers
• Increase knowledge of resources for signposting appropriate to carers’ needs
