The Serious Illness Conversation Guide (SICG) is a validated, evidence-based tool that is known to improve experiences of clinicians, patients and caregivers while navigated a serious illness. Less is known about how to implement this guide into everyday practice, and about how to work with health organizations and leaders to integrate serious illness communication into workflows, policy and standard of practice. This session will explore the key components of what it takes to implement the Serious Illness Conversation Program and some of the barriers and enablers that clinicians and implementers may encounter along the way.
