SUMMARY:Webinar: Guide Training Adaptations for Remote & Hybrid Work
DESCRIPTION:Event hosted by: Ariadne Labs \nJoin us to learn about three different models for adapting the Serious Illness Care Conversation Guide Training to meet the needs of remote and hybrid work environments.  As remote and hybrid work became more prevalent over the last year\, systems implementing the Serious Illness Care Program rapidly transitioned the in-person training\, consisting of didactic and skills practice sessions\, to fully- or partially-virtual modes of delivery.  In this webinar\, we will hear from Drs. Rachelle Bernacki\, Trish Ford\, and Seiko Izumi about each of their adaptations to the training\, and the pros and cons to each.  Additionally\, we’ll learn tips about how to plan your own virtual training from SICP CoP Ambassador\, Danielle Miltz\, with input from fellow Ambassadors\, Emma Penti\, Nancy Joyner\, and Lynn Aiksnoras. \nWe look forward to hearing your adaptations\, learnings\, and questions. \nTo register for this event click here

SUMMARY:Can we talk? How a shared language of care can promote a palliative approach to heart failure
DESCRIPTION:Event Hosted by: Canadian Palliative Care Nursing Association (CPCNA) \nEvent cost: Free to members\, $40 to non-members \n\n\n\n\nHow can a patient with advancing heart failure (HF) experience care that alleviates suffering and helps them to live their best life? While some progress has been made to integrate a palliative approach to the care of these patients and their families\, challenges exist in bridging the two distinct care cultures of HF and Palliative Care. Essential to this important practice shift is the effective communication between health care providers\, patients and their family caregivers. This presentation will explore how the Heart Failure Palliative Approach to Care (HeFPAC) was designed to build capacity for care through a shared language that fosters communication about priority issues that commonly arise in advanced HF. \n\nPresenter Bio: \n\n\n\n\nPatricia Strachan RN MSc PhD is an Associate Professor in the School of Nursing at McMaster University. She is Chair of the Canadian Association Schools of Nursing Palliative and End-of-Life Care Interest Group and Co-Chair of the Healthcare Communication in Nursing Special Interest Group for the European Association for Communication in Healthcare. A passionate and innovative nurse educator\, Patricia draws from the arts and philosophy to engage learners in imagining the possibilities for nursing. \nTo register click here
