Ontario Renews CEoL Education Fund for Palliative and End-of-Life Training in LTC

Posted On: November 17, 2022

Ontario LTC homes can once again access All-In Palliative Care: The Team Approach to LTC (All-In) training to enhance their team members’ skills in both palliative care and end-of-life care! This free training is made possible by the CEoL Education Fund that provides tuition and backfill funding for participation of interprofessional team members.

All-In is an evidence-informed training program that will boost interprofessional care delivery and improve team-wide communication through interactive scenario-based learning on the psychosocial aspects of palliative care. All-In is aligned to the new Fixing Long Term Care Act, 2021 that requires a palliative approach to care for all LTC residents.

“We see everyday that team members want to better the care and quality of life of residents. The All-In Palliative Care training program offers much needed space for reflection and tools for a culturally sensitive, team-based palliative approach to care. Many have taken this training to understand themselves and to deepen their knowledge. They are also engaged because they can promote change for residents, care partners and change within their own LTC team.” says Zsófia Orosz, Director, Ontario CLRI at Bruyère.

By participating, your team will:

  • Clarify the difference between palliative care and end-of-life care;
  • Learn how to strengthen the integration of an interprofessional approach to palliative care;
  • Develop improved communication skills to interact within the interdisciplinary team, with residents and their families; and
  • Contribute to a grief-friendly workplace.

This training will be delivered in an 8-hour virtual course by expert facilitators. One hour of prerequisite eLearning is included in All-In. Interested homes should apply by December 19, 2022. Training takes place in February and March 2023.
