Last Aid - Berri

Tuesday 8 October 2024, 3.00pm - 7.00pm

We all know about First Aid, but what about Last Aid? Funded by Country SA PHN, this course is FREE for people living or working in regional South Australia.

Last Aid is a 4-hour international standardised introductory level community training program. On completion of the course you can be considered a Last Aider. The way we care for our dying reflects the humanity and compassion of our society. Through training we can create resilience, understanding and capacity within our community, helping us care for our loved ones, families and friends. We believe that just as every organisation needs a First Aider, we all need a Last Aider, because dying, death and grief are universal.

The course is for all members of the community, and there is no requirement for training or experience within the health or palliative care space to attend. While not directly targeted to health professionals, we welcome the attendance of everyone interested in these areas.

The topics covered include:

• Dying as a normal part of life
• Planning ahead
• Relieving suffering
• Final goodbyes.

Hosted by Palliative Care South Australia, in collaboration with Focus One Health, complimentary light refreshments, tea and coffee will be available on the day for all ticket holders.

Places are limited. For more information and to register for your free ticket visit Humanitix.
