Palliative Care
(Saint John, NB) Senior Watch Inc. is proud to offer a 5-part National Palliative Care Certificate Program. This course is designed specifically for paraprofessionals and family caregivers involved in providing care to those
at end of life . "As caregivers providing palliative care in the community, we must always be acutely sensitive to the needs of those for whom we care." states Sharon A. O’Brien,
Executive Vice-President.
Ms. O’Brien believes that culture, belief systems and personal values affect the way life is lived and death is faced. In addition she states, these same elements determine the "care" that is given.
These sessions challenge participants to address the following questions: Is health a possible part of illness? As caregivers do we see this person as a normal person with an illness or just an illness? Are we able to allow people to learn from their mistakes? Can we genuinely accept a dying person’s feelings without judging or correcting? Can we incorporate "health" into the "death" process? Are we able to look beyond the disease to the person? Can we genuinely accept a dying person’s feelings without judgment?
We are accepting bookings for upcoming sessions. Cost $199.00 . Registration
