PROGRAMME (SHORT COURSES)
Please note that apart from courses with Mary Ingledew's name as a contact point the inclusion of events and other information on this page does not signify that it is accredited or approved by the Hospital/Healthcare Chaplaincy Training & Development Office, but is a selection of what is on offer for Chaplains Facilitators: Julia Manning and Gill O’Halloran (Principal Social Workers, St. Christopher’s Hospice). “Stop shouting at me! Your anger is frightening me. I can only imagine it must be frightening you too.” “I know you say you can’t cope without seeing me but I actually think you would cope very well. In fact I think it’s time to start talking about endings”. This Masterclass will offer a platform for exploring ‘risky conversations’ with individuals and families in the context of illness and loss. Sometimes we have no choice but to respond to risk situations. Whilst we will acknowledge the need for assessment, containment and keeping safe, our focus in this session will be on initiating conversations which push boundaries, mention the unmentionable or confront. What are the risks of getting such conversations wrong, to our patients, clients, ourselves and our organisations? What is the cost of not taking a risk? In dialogue between senior practitioners in this field and the course participants, we will explore the above challenges using real cases as examples.

The Bereavement Pathways Project explores ways of bridging the gap in the pathway of bereaved relatives from hospital based bereavement services through to support services in the community. Care along the end of life and bereavement pathway will impact and influence the bereavement experience and there is a need for appropriate intervention and interactions by the right people at the right time. This
joint hospital and community venture aimed
to establish key partnerships working across
traditional, and sometimes well guarded, boundaries
to increase access to services and support
for bereaved people however a death occurred,
whoever they are and wherever they died. The
project aims to encourage the development
of best practice for statutory and voluntary
agencies working in partnership, supported
by evidence of how this can be done and why
it should be done.
