October PD Session: Palliative Care Can Happen Anywhere: Education and Tools for Rehab Staff
2024-10-07 12:00 - 13:00 (America/Edmonton)
Palliative care relieves the physical symptoms and supports the psychosocial needs of people with a serious illness. The goal is to help people live as well as possible, this is the same as rehabilitation care goals. Palliative care can be delivered by generalists anywhere in the healthcare system. Physiotherapists, occupational therapists and speech language pathologists are doing palliative care when they improve quality of life, provide interventions, identify unmet needs, anticipate and support declining function and safety needs. The rehabilitation team helps people maintain dignity and comfort while they experience functional decline. Our presentation aims to empower and equip physiotherapists, occupational therapists and speech language pathologists to have knowledge, resources and education needed to deliver palliative care with their clients.
