  • SERIOUS ILLNESS COMMUNICATION SKILLS TRAINING FOR NURSES

    By: Margaret Delaney Margaret Delaney , one month ago

    Please join us for Alpha Beta Chapter’s spring virtual event:

    Event Details

    Date: Monday, February 26th, 2024

    Time: 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm (CST)

    Location: Zoom Meeting Room

    Link available upon registration

    This educational session provides the participant the foundational knowledge, skills, and confidence to engage in conversations with patients with a serious illness.  Using an evidence-based Serious Illness Conversation Guide, clinicians will learn how to identify patients with serious illness, utilize key communication skills to initiate conversations within their scope of practice to elicit patients’ goals, values, and preferences for care.     

    Engaging in Serious Illness Conversations allows nurses and other clinicians to provide person-centered care by facilitating a plan of care that supports an individual’s goals and preferences.  Engaging in serious illness conversations promotes goal-concordant care at the end of life, increases patient and family satisfaction, and decreases clinician burnout.   

    All participants receive 2.5 Continuing Nursing Education Credits from the Ohio Nurses Association, an Ohio Board of Nursing approver of nursing continuing education. (OBN-001-91)  This is a PACE approved course for 2.5 CEUs for certified case managers.
