Introducing the Education Team
at St Wilfrid's
We
are a small core team supported by a large number of very
experienced expert practitioners who teach on our courses
and ensure that theory is underpinned by sound and lively
discussion of practice. These expert lecturer practitioners
include Medical Consultants and Clinical Nurse Specialists
mainly from St Wilfrid's Hospice and St Richard's Hospital.
Our Complementary Therapies programmes are taught by highly
qualified therapists with considerable experience in palliative
care.
