A new learning path for ambulatory care teams has been added to Health Education England elearning for healthcare (HEE elfh)’s end-of life-care for all programme.
Ambulatory teams consist of physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and allied health professionals who offer same day care to patients at the hospital. This means that patients are assessed, diagnosed, treated, and can go home the same day, without being admitted into hospital overnight.
This learning path was collated with the assistance of the Ambulatory Assessment Team at Oxford University Hospitals. It is designed to support ambulatory team members to be more confident in the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of patients nearing the end of life.
For more information and to access the resource, please visit the learning path, within the end-of-life-care for all (e-ELCA) programme.
