Session Description

As Baby Boomers age they are changing the way we engage and treat the dying. This session will help the TR/RT professional work with people who are confronting they own mortality. As TR/RT professionals we need to be prepared to participate in clear and honest conversations about perceived control and quality of life. In order to do this we will explore our own feelings about death and dying. The changes that are happening in the current health care paradigm, and how TR/RT’s can facilitate interventions to help patients and families address their own mortality will be covered.
