The goal of the Palliative Care Workshop is to provide particpants with evidence-based theories on grief and loss and death and dying thereby enabling students to recognize the needs of all patients with progressive illnesses, implement quality palliative care and improve the care and treatment for dying patients. Participants will apply their knowledge of grief and loss to create effective nursing care plans for patients and include their family members in the process offering information on grief counselling as needed. Also, participants will be aware of their own need for grief counselling and seek help for stress and burnout.
