Course Description

This training is only for Bureau of Human Services Licensing Representatives.

 

The end-of-life resident support system can be complex. This hybrid training will explore hospice and palliative care and legal issues licensing staff may have to investigate. This 8-hour training includes 2.5 hours of prerequisites and 5.5 hours of live virtual training. The prerequisite training includes a self-paced training on legal issues for residents with chronic illness or terminal diagnosis. The live virtual program will include a review and discussion on palliative and hospice care, provide an opportunity to learn about grief and identify ways to support individuals, and discuss ethical issues.
