CSU Shiley Institute for Palliative Care at CSUSM

Mission To educate San Diego County current healthcare professionals, future healthcare professionals, and the community about Palliative Care.

Vision To create a model of “humanized” healthcare such that SD healthcare professionals and San Diego residents will understand palliative care options, ask for palliative care when appropriate, and for those over 18, have legal Advance Directives in place.

Caregivers

We provide support and education to caregivers of all ages. We advocate for the emotional, mental, and physical well-being of not only the patient, but the caregivers themselves. Check out our programs and resources to help you cope with care giving.

College Students

We promote the importance of mental, spiritual, physical, and emotional well-being of young adults. Our organization provides the necessary tools for preventative healthcare, wellness, and resources for caregiver support on the CSUSM campus.

Professionals

We host educational conferences and events to inform healthcare professionals about the importance of palliative care. We also provide manuals for guidance on how to provide patients with the most compassionate care. Check out our conferences and how you can implement the What Gives Your Life Meaning Campaign.

Community

Community is the heartbeat of palliative care. We host various community events to share the message of palliative care. We also provide local resources to assure the community is aware of the various organizations they have access to. Check out our community page to find out about our upcoming events.
