Description:
Join our multidisciplinary faculty for a day focused on palliative care. While not new, palliative care has rapidly advanced in recent years, yet this important area of medicine is often misunderstood by patients. This course will address what palliative care is, how it can benefit patients, and how to incorporate it into your practice.
Lectures and breakout sessions are designed to provide a foundation for delivering “generalist” palliative care and will be of value to all members of the care team. Topics will address ethical questions, updates in pharmacology, and provide strategies for how to talk about prognosis, delivering serious news, and understanding and processing the personal emotions we experience working with the seriously ill.
