“The problem with not talking about death and dying is that we now have no idea what to say or what to do, or how to act when this inevitable part of our lives approaches, whether for ourselves or someone we love”

— Katie Duncan, Nurse Practitioner

In this session, we will explore the idea that dying is a normal part of living, and it will impact us all. We describe, in very gentle and understandable terms, the dying process. We clear up common myths that surround symptom management and the dying process. Most importantly, we give participants tips and strategies to provide comfort and support to a person who is dying, as well as their caregivers, so that if/when you are faced with this situation in the future, you will feel safe and comfortable providing support. 

Who is this for? For adults.

Trigger warning: this session will explain the dying process and may not be suitable for individuals who are recently bereaved.
