Clinicians in all care settings who work with people with life limiting illnesses share one thing: they need a good understanding of the foundations of palliative care. This easy to access training module, Principles of Palliative Care and Palliative Approach, reinforces the foundational skills of the palliative approach to care.
This module contributes to a solid palliative care foundation by covering the key concepts of palliative care and a palliative approach. This module uses a timeline that illustrates how a palliative approach is provided over the course of an illness, and what that care looks like in various settings. (And it takes just 15-30 minutes!)
The course uses tips and case-based scenarios, and offers downloadable resources and links to other tools to help you weave a palliative approach to care into your practice.
This course is targeted to heath care providers including nurses, physicians, nurse practitioners, social workers, allied health professionals, paramedics, and pharmacists.
