This workshop on 'Caring For The Dying & Terminally Ill Patients' is specially for caregivers - family, friends, volunteers, nurses, doctors and administrators
The eyes of a dying patient are clear mirrors. In their gaze there is simply no place to hide. Coming face to face with dying requires a fierce compassion and self-awareness that is best supported by mindfulness, emotional balance and equanimity. Joan Halifax a pioneer in contemplative care of the dying is offering this special intensive for experienced caregivers. The training builds essential competencies in three areas: strengthens individual capacity for compassionate service, enhances spiritual development, and teaches health care providers and family caregivers how to work with burn-out, secondary trauma, and moral distress.
