Assisting People to Live Fully Until Death: Beyond Pain & Symptom Management

Take a moment to focus on key care concepts such as the spiritual-biopsychosocial model of care, the patient/family as the plan-of-care driver, and fully informed care. How prepared are patients and families for the time of death? How prepared is the IDT? Do you know how to skillfully utilize “meaning making” interventions to enable people to design their best possible end-of-life experience? Learn the answer to those questions and so much more. This webinar will focus on identifying and addressing suffering at admission, and on how to create end-of-life experiences driven by the meaning that patients and families give to this universally important life event we all face and share.

This informative session is designed for all levels of hospice and palliative care workers. While some content will focus on the work of spiritual caregivers and social workers, the overall message and teachings will benefit all team members, staff, and volunteers.
