Psychosocial skills in palliative care

A presentation dedicated to essential psychosocial skills in palliative care providing practitioners with practical tools tailored for their professional practice. These encompass critical elements such as key assessment tools, discussions centred on future care planning, effective communication, embracing spirituality, and fostering an empathetic presence. These skills are vital for attending to the emotional and psychological needs of patients and their families, facilitating challenging conversations, and delivering holistic, compassionate care in end-of-life scenarios.

The session will also feature practical elements, including psychosocial assessments, which practitioners can readily apply in their practice environments.
