Understanding the Hospice Palliative Care Approach to Inform Communication at End-of-Life in Long-Term Care

On February 28, 2017, the Ontario Centres for Learning, Research and Innovation in Long-Term Care (CLRI) hosted a webinar surrounding the communication at end-of-life. This webinar was presented by Ruth Richardson, Hospice Palliative Care Nurse Educator at Algonquin College.

Background

Supported by funding from the Government of Ontario, The Ontario CLRI collaborated with Algonquin College to create resources aimed at teaching personal support workers working in LTC about communication at end-of-life through train-the-trainer workshops and PSW education. A variety of resources have been created to support this, including this webinar.
