Welcome!
This elearning programme is for doctors, based both in hospitals and in the community. After spending an hour or so studying the programme you will be more aware of the sensitivities needed in one of the most demanding situations: the death of a baby or child. You may have encountered such a situation. This programme will help you reflect on your practice.
Learning outcomes
At the end of this elearning you will have:
- Increased understanding of parents’ and families’ experiences and emotions when a child is not expected to live, or has died
- Understanding of the benefits of developing new sensitivity in this area
- Knowledge of how to obtain further guidance and support
- Awareness of the aims and work of Child Bereavement UK and how to access information through its website
Planning your time
The programme contains about an hour of material. You can stop and start at any time. If you do, the computer will save your results for next time. However the learning will be most effective if you break only at the end of one of the 5 modules.
Allow around 20 minutes for your first study period and 10-15 minutes per session after that.
Credits for continuing education
The training in this elearning programme can contribute to your continuing professional development.
