This 3 day training is designed to prepare massage therapists to work in all hospice settings.  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.

Through a combination of lecture, discussion, group activities and hands-on practice, you will learn:
  • the history and philosophy of Hospice
  • the benefits, indications and contraindications for the most common pathologies experienced by patients in Hospice care
  • modifications necessary to safely and effectively massage in various hospice settings (home, hospital, nursing homes)
  • the emotional intelligence needed to work with hospice patients
  • to enhance your ability to be present and offer comfort
  • to develop self-care techniques to prevent burn-out
  • to assess changing symptoms and create a treatment plan based on those changes
  • to communicate effectively with patients, family, caregivers and the treatment team
  • to practice these skills in a mock clinic setting​
​
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.”
