The Impact of COVID-19 in Serious Illness Care

This session will provide an opportunity for healthcare providers to learn strategies to respond to challenges in serious illness care due to COVID-19. We will discuss the role of palliative care and how clinical care, communication, and resilience all come into play. The webinar will feature a conversation between Patricia Noga, Vice President of Clinical Affairs for the Massachusetts Health and Hospital Association and Constance Dahlin, Chair of the Palliative Care Workgroup for the Massachusetts Comprehensive Cancer and Prevention Control Network and a palliative care consultant. Clinicians from all areas of care are encouraged to attend and learn more about this issue, made all the more relevant because of the COVID 19 pandemic.
