ForwardThe Interprofessional Team Approach to Care in the Time of COVID-19
Baptist Health Medical Group’s Palliative Care department presents The Interprofessional Team Approach to Care in the Time of COVID-19. Palliative care is a rapidly growing medical specialty, and a mounting body of evidence shows that it enhances the quality of healthcare for people living with serious illness and for their families, while reducing medical expenditures.
This course highlights the role of each member of an interprofessional team during the pandemic crisis to deliver end-of-life care fostering communication between the healthcare team, patients and their families.
A series of case-based presentations allows the learner to experience how the palliative care team is essential to communicating goals of care and assisting with complex medical decisions that align with patients’ and their families’ cultural and religious beliefs.
Target Audience
Palliative Care Team Members, including Physicians, Physician Assistants, Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Pharmacists, Pharmacy Technicians, Respiratory Therapists (Direct Delivery), Social Workers, Dietitians, Clinical Chaplains, Medical Students and other interested healthcare professionals.
Learning Objectives
- Implement strategies to participate in goals of care and advance care planning conversations.
- Leverage the palliative care team to collaborate within an interprofessional team to support end-of-life care that reduces suffering.
- Effectively communicate with patients and their families to address quality of life at end of life.
