Thank you for Registering for Hospice Massage
6I am delighted to share this amazing work with you!
My work with hospice massage has been life changing. While I always had an interest in this work, I was intimidated. I can now attest to the beauty and fulfillment of working with patients at the end-of-life.
It is my sincere hope that this course will allay any fears or doubts you may have about this specialized work. This course will allow you to reflect on and explore your attitudes and feelings about what Ram Daas calls “walking each other home.”
Additionally, it will provide the tools necessary to work safely, effectively, and compassionately with patients at the end of life.
Upon completion of this course, you will feel prepared and confident to do this amazing work.
