As healthcare providers, we embrace the need to provide culturally inclusive care for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or questioning community. This course examines LGBTQ+ terminology and healthcare disparities in the LGBTQ+ community and presents NJ Senate Bill 2545 as a national model of establishing certain requirements concerning LGBTQ+ residents of long-term care facilities. Attendees will assess their personal and organizational understanding, beliefs, and biases of LGBTQ+ individuals as they relate to that community’s healthcare needs, especially at the end of life, and create an action plan for their healthcare organizations.
Effective communication in healthcare organizations positively affects many aspects of the system and its stakeholders. It allows patients to feel respected and safe to openly communicate their beliefs, fears, and questions in order to receive effective treatment, especially at the end of life. This course will examine how advance care planning is the first line of communication between all stakeholders and barriers to effective communication in healthcare settings, how to maximize limited time to build trust and relationships with all stakeholders, and how to use effective communication techniques so that optimum care is provided at the end of life. Attendees will assess their individual and organizational communication styles/beliefs/biases in efforts to enhance and increase their community approval ratings. Communication techniques and the role of end of life doulas will be shared as resources to bridge limited time restraints in healthcare settings between stakeholders so that communication efforts and optimum care are maximized.
End of Life Care: Through The Eyes of Hospice and End of Life Doulas
Care managers positively impact the lives of people living with chronic illness and disability by addressing a broad range of issues related to well-being, including assistance in navigating the healthcare system and finding available community resources. Care managers often remain with their clients through the end of their lives. Care managers may not be comfortable with providing end of life care and may benefit from specialized knowledge and skill. This presentation will provide case managers with best practices in treating serious illness, especially in the last 6 months of life, based on the experiences of a hospice worker and an end-of-life doula. A case study will demonstrate how collaborative community partnerships deliver goal-concordant care of the highest quality until the last breath.
