SUMMARY:Unlocking Dignity: How to Improve the Reintegration Experience of Justice-involved People with Life-limiting Illnesses into Community
DESCRIPTION:Session resources\n\nSession summary notes\nPresentation recording: YouTube\n\nReintegrating into the community after incarceration is a complex process that requires a coordinated\, inter-agency and interdisciplinary approach.

This session will create a space to share how this is currently being done in our communities\, identify existing gaps and challenges\, and discuss innovative strategies to enhance access to care. Through shared experiential knowledge and collaboration\, we will envision pathways that ensure justice-involved individuals receive the right care\, in the right place\, at the right time. \nPresenters: \n\nIridian Grenada\, Advisory Consultant\, Justice Reintegration\nMar’yana Fisher\, RN\, PhD(c) Palliative Nurse Clinician\n\nThe intended audience for this session is healthcare providers and community organizations.

SUMMARY:The Pandemic Made Me Do It - Moving from "death by PowerPoint" to engaging e-learning
DESCRIPTION:Dates:\nTuesday\, November 2nd\, 2021  \nFocus:\nThroughout the pandemic\, educators have had to scramble to modify in-person sessions to online. Most of the time\, the best we could do was PowerPoint over Zoom. The downside was that learners could have the camera off and could be snoozing\, not even in the room\, or even walking the dog. On the upside\, those living in rural and remote areas or those who don’t have time to leave their desk have had more\, and more accessible\, education opportunities. How to keep the good and lose the bad?
