End-of-life care and bereavement in the pandemic

This webinar is part of the Green Templeton College Care Initiative.

This session turns to aspects of care that have been under-emphasised in the pandemic – end of life care and bereavement. The session will focus first on the recommended standards and practices of end-of-life-care – especially the Gold Standards Framework (GSF) as developed by the National GSF Centre – and will then turn to new research on people’s experiences of the end of life, mourning and bereavement during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our two speakers are Professor Keri Thomas, Founder and Clinical Lead of The National GSF Centre and Honorary Professor, University of Birmingham, and Dr Lucy Selman, Senior Research Fellow, Bristol Medical School. The session will be chaired by Professor Mary Daly, Governing Body Fellow, Green Templeton College and Professor of Sociology and Social Policy at the Department of Social Policy and Intervention, University of Oxford.

This event will be held on Zoom. Details on how to access the event will be sent to those who register to attend.
