FREE Webinar October – PSWs: Navigating Difficult Conversations

Perhaps one of the most difficult things for any health care provider is learning how to respond to difficult questions!

As a PSW you are often the trusted caregiver who the person and family turn to for support, reassurance and answers. It is your role to respond, but how to respond with compassion, and within your role as a PSW can be so challenging!

In October, Misha Butot, counsellor extraordinaire, and Kath Murray, hospice palliative care nurse and educator, will address some of the difficult questions that you are often asked about involuntary weight loss, loss of appetite, and decreased intake. We will share the VERS framework, and then role play different ways one might respond. We will then open to comments, suggestions and questions.

In this upcoming webinar:

  • You will leave the session with a greater understanding of the challenge of cachexia and anorexia
  • Have ideas for how you might respond to any difficult questions.

Date October 8th, 11am – 12pm PST 2pm -3pm EST
Presenters: Misha Butot and Kath Murray
