Overview

Three self-paced courses around 20 minutes in length each.

  1. Communicating about Hospice Palliative Care
  2. Coping with Grief
  3. Building Relationships

This series serves as an introduction to the more comprehensive All-In Palliative Care: The Team Approach to LTC training program.
