DWAH eLearning Programme At Irish Hospice Foundation, we are working to ensure the best end-of-life and bereavement care for all. A key part of our role is to provide education and training to healthcare and social care professionals and volunteers, as well as to members of the public. One of the ways we do this is through eLearning, which people can engage with
in their own time. For full details see https://elearning.hospicefoundation.ie/
If someone you care abut is dying in a nursing home or other care settings, IHF have developed two other booklets which may help you know what to expect. We understand that this is a very emotional and challenging time for you and hope these booklets make it a little easier for you. Both of these booklets are available to download - see details below.

Think Ahead A practical tool and customisable guide for advance care planning and end of life. It helps a person document their healthcare choices and personal wishes, for a future time when they may not be able to make or express those decisions. ink Ahead is in full alignment with the recently commenced Assisted Decision-Making (Capacity) Act 2015. Palliative care isn’t just for end of life; it’s about living your best life and remaining involved in all decisions as your illness progresses. Palliative care is about living well and planning for the future. Irish Hospice Foundation’s ‘ ink Ahead Planning Pack’ helps you discuss and record your wishes and preferences. See www.thinkahead.ie
