 The interactive workshop will cover:

  • Key strategies for identifying individuals in the general practice setting who may be approaching the end of life
  • Strategies for communicating with patients and families about prognosis and goals and preferences for care
  • The principles of end of life care, including assessment and management of pain and other common symptoms

  • Self care strategies to effectively manage the personal issues related to working in this field
