Palliative Care Education for Organizations
To create a successful palliative care program, it is extremely important that everyone in the organization has a generalist level of knowledge about palliative care. The California State University Shiley Institute for Palliative Care works with leading experts in palliative care to create up-to-date curriculum that is accurate, interactive, and very engaging.
While there are many webinars and videos in the marketplace presented as palliative care education, the distinction lies in the quality of the content and the integration of the learning. All Institute courses are designed to raise awareness, build skills, and to support healthcare organizations in delivering the best care possible.
