Cultural Competency: Religious & Spiritually Diverse Practices in Death, Dying & Bereavement

Healthcare practitioners increasingly encounter patients and families of diverse religious and spiritual association navigating life-limiting illnesses or terminal conditions. Culturally competent practice warrants that practitioners understand religious/spiritually diverse end-of-life and death-related beliefs. This interactive webinar will address the practices of Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, and Hindu populations. These populations will form the basis of case studies focusing on provider-patient/family interactions.

This informative session will advance the knowledge and skills of team leaders, frontline nursing professionals, volunteer managers, occupational and physical therapists, social workers, spiritual caregivers, and others who participate in the patient/family care experience.
