SUMMARY:Continuing Education: The Power of Language—Empowering Social Work to Influence Word Choice in Patient-Centered Care
DESCRIPTION:At the heart of communication in health care settings and beyond are decisions related to language and word choice. As palliative care has developed and been integrated across settings and diagnoses\, phrases and concepts\, such as “quality of life\,” “goals of care” and “suffering\,” weave across discussions\, often without consciousness of the cultural\, social\, and historical contexts of the patient and family we are serving. No matter the setting\, words and phrases significantly impact patient and family experiences\, decisional outcomes\, bereavement\, and legacy. Well-intentioned yet misplaced word choice can negatively impact patient interpretation of information and create distance when the goal is to enhance connection. Social workers\, as experts and leaders in communication\, can model and educate as they attend to their own language in speaking and documentation\, and invite colleagues to join them in mitigating the unintended consequences of ineffective word choice. \nContinuing Education Hours Offered: 3

SUMMARY:Continuing Education: Supporting Patients and Families Through the Dying Process
DESCRIPTION:Familiarizing ourselves with how to help people who are dying and those around them increases in importance as our population ages and the country experiences health threats. Supporting our clients facing their own or others’ dying process requires us to have general knowledge about that process; to understand our own reactions to death; and to know how\, when\, and whether to help. Our ability to empower and comfort our clients around the deaths they are experiencing is strengthened by our knowledge and our own confidence in addressing these topics. \nThis class will review the symptoms of pre-active and active dying and how to help the family at the bedside manage these. We’ll consider what people who are dying want and fear\, and how these concerns may change over the course of their dying. We’ll explore how decision-making and communication affect the patient’s death experience\, including considering how hope and a poor prognosis interact. Participants will be invited to share their personal and professional introductions to death. We will also consider our strengths and weaknesses as advocates. Finally\, we will practice some easy exercises to help ourselves remain grounded despite the whirlwind of emotions around us. \nContinuing Education Hours Offered: 4
