WORKSHOP: Conversations at the End of Life

Conversations at the end of life are often daunting to healthcare professionals, be they focused on breaking bad news, collusion or discussing goals of care. This 3 hours workshop aims to delve into the multifaceted challenges of these conversations, especially the psycho-emotional barriers and how we can better handle them. This workshop is most suited for family physicians, nurses and allied-health workers.
