Serious Illness Messaging and Crucial Conversations
Copyright :
One of the biggest challenges healthcare professionals face is the serious illness messaging and critical conversations that are vital for patient care. Advance care planning is often overlooked. Many patients we see simply do not have one. However, the important aspect of guiding patients through their medical treatment and care involves very specific discussions for them. In this session, you will learn about advance care planning and your role in it. You will also learn about serious illness messaging, conversation steps and guidelines, the power of four words, and how to address consent and decision-making challenges. We will end with a discussion on addressing the most difficult questions “how long do I have?”
