BC Centre for Palliative Care
Back by popular demand, these sessions are for anyone working with people who are affected by serious illness and looking to incorporate the palliative approach to care into your daily practice. These 60 minutes interactive sessions are designed to be a vehicle for sharing your own experience, resourcefulness, and inventiveness in your work with patients across the care systems.
Sessions build upon Learning Hub modules created by a team of experts in palliative care and adult education, alongside a focus group of health care providers. This education can be applied to patients of any age, at any point from diagnosis to bereavement, in all care settings.
Each module takes about 15 minutes to complete and is foundational learning for nurses, nurse practitioners, physicians, social workers, counsellors, allied health, and students who are not familiar with palliative care and a palliative approach but provide direct care for people with life-limiting illnesses in any health care setting.
Completion of the modules is not required beforehand, as the content will be covered during the ECHO sessions.
