- A chance for
junior healthcare
professionals and students (medics, nurses,
pharmacists etc. are welcome!) to explore and discuss Catholic
healthcare ethics. Each month a senior practitioner or other expert is invited to give a 30 minute presentation, followed by discussion. The
aim will be to understand the Church’s teaching, and explore ways in
which we can present it sympathetically to patients, colleagues and
managers.
-
Meetings start at 6.30pm (for 7pm) and take
place in Vaughan House, Francis Street, SW1P 1QN (behind Westminster Cathedral, near
Victoria tube station). There is Mass at 5.30pm in the Cathedral.
