Currently four team members are studying for higher qualifications in palliative care at Makarere University, Uganda under courses run by Hospice Africa Uganda. Their training provides an excellent foundation in palliative care for both nurses and clinicians. Two team members are now in their 2nd year of a BSc programme. These two nurses (one from the children’s team , the other from the adult team) have just returned from their attachment period for the Diploma in palliative care – and are proudly wearing their T-shirts to show it!
