SUMMARY:February Education Session
DESCRIPTION:Moral Distress: Why Am I Feeling This Way?\nWe have all faced impactful moments in healthcare that linger in our memories\, leaving us drained\, overwhelmed\, and powerless.  If these emotions go unaddressed\, they can lead to moral distress and injury\, particularly in challenging settings like end-of-life care.  Acknowledging the signs\, causes\, and limitations linked to moral distress is the initial stride toward delivering exceptional care.  In addition to recognizing its impact\, we must also develop strategies and practices to address moral distress and foster resilience among those providing hospice palliative care. \n  \nDate: Wednesday\, February 28\, 2024 \nFormat: Webinar – Participants can attend via Zoom either individually or as part of a viewing group hosted at both the Erie Shores and Windsor Campuses. The Zoom link will be provided upon registration. \nTime: Doors open and a light meal is provided at 5:00 pm for the on‐site viewing groups \n\nErie Shores Campus (197 Talbot St. W.\, Leamington) – Welcome Centre\nWindsor Campus (6038 Empress St.\, Windsor) – Administrative Building #600\n\nPresentation begins at 5:30 pm \nPresenters: Dr. Patricia Valcke\, Dr. Thomas Burgess\, and Maria Giannotti – The Hospice of Windsor and Essex County \n  \nRegistration is now closed.
