THE DR RICHARD MILLER EDUCATION CENTRE

The Education Team

We are committed to ensuring quality end-of-life care and support the health and social care workforce through our passionate and experienced clinical Education Team.

Sharing Knowledge, Expertise & Experience

At St Michael’s Hospice, we have always valued sharing knowledge with professionals and learning from them.

Since 1990, our education services for nurses, doctors, and a wide range of professionals have continued to grow. We deliver education both within the Hospice and across external healthcare settings, ensuring our reach extends into the wider community.

Our programmes are aligned with nationally recognised Core Capabilities and associated Career Pathways, supporting the development of knowledge, skills, and confidence required to deliver high-quality, person-centred palliative and end-of-life care.

By sharing our expertise, we support both professional and non-professional carers, strengthening care within our community now and for the future.

Bespoke Training

We work with you to create bespoke training packages tailored to your team’s needs, focusing on any area of palliative and end-of-life care.

 

Room Hire

Our Education Centre provides flexible spaces for hire, ideal for meetings and training. Each room offers breath-taking views of our gardens and the surrounding countryside, creating a welcoming and inspiring setting for your event.

Placement Opportunities

St Michael’s Hospice offers a diverse range of inspiring placement and work experience opportunities, providing students with valuable insight into the many rewarding career pathways within a hospice setting.

Project ECHO®

Join Herefordshire & Worcestershire’s Palliative & End-of-Life ECHO Hub and connect with a growing network of health and social care professionals, including those delivering palliative care beyond hospice settings, who are learning, sharing and supporting each other every day. 

Free to attend and delivered via Zoom, these 60-90 minute sessions combine expert-led teaching with open, real-world discussion, so you can gain practical insights, share experiences and learn directly from peers facing the same challenges as you.
