We are running our 2 day Bereavement and Loss course in December in Aberdeen on the 6^th and 13^th of December. This is relevant for you if you work with someone with profound learning and multiple disabilities and want to learn more about supporting them through grief but this course will also aid your team when someone they support with pmld passes. Get in touch to book or for more information.

PAMIS, Promoting A More Inclusive Society, solely supports people with profound learning and multiple disabilities (PMLD) and their families to lead healthy, valued and included lives. With over 28 years’ experience in family support, inclusive practice, learning and development, research and campaigning, PAMIS understand the complexity of care and support required by this group.

Working with a highly skilled team of staff, family carers and lead practitioners in the field, PAMIS have developed a portfolio of learning and development opportunities/courses that focus on the care and understanding of children, young people and adults with PMLD.

Our ultimate goal for this portfolio is to ensure that all who care and support people with PMLD have the right skills, knowledge, understanding and values to enable the person to live a safe, healthy, valued and inclusive life.

 We support the involvement of family carers as co-educators, a model that has been developed over the past 28 years and ensures accessible, relevant and successful delivery of range of courses.

We offer face to face courses, events and other training and development opportunities for family, paid carers and practioners working in health and social care.

We have a range of learning and development courses to support practitioners and those caring and working with people with profound learning and multiple disabilities (PMLD)

Topics include:

• • Understanding communication and behaviour
  • Bereavement and loss
  • 24 hour Postural care
  • Introduction to Multi-Sensory Storytelling
  • SOMA – Sporting Opportunities for Motor Development
  • Emergency First Aid at Work with PMLD Specific Information
  • Intensive Interaction
  • PAMIS Digital Passports
  • Sensory Integration
  • Welcoming Changing Places Users to Your Venue
  • The Imagination Toolkit

There are also opportunities for participants to be involved in reflective practice. This can also contribute towards continuing professional development, including CPD for the Health and Care Professions Council as well as Post-Registration Training and Learning (PRTL) for the Scottish Social Services Council.
