Attended this wonderful course for the first time the last 2 days. So many wonderful, and inspiring speakers and so much to take back and to influence my future practice.

Quick overnight to London and back for 2nd round of the Guildford Advanced Pain and Symptom management course @CoursesAdvanced It is invaluable to learn from peers, hear about ongoing research and have my clinical practice challenged in a thought provoking way.

Dr Twycross worked until his death to highlight the fundamentals of good care.

The level of complexity that GPs, DNs and community palliative care teams are trying manage for people at end of life is growing due to lack of staff, time pressures, archaic prescribing policies, IT clashes, ambulance waiting times, social isolation and OOH shortages.

It can take many hours to get a medication to someone distressed at end of life. It’s just not given the priority that other emergencies are given in medicine. The consequences of delayed relief are my biggest fear in palliative care
