this course filled in a gap in my understanding of the transitions of care. Survivorship is seldom taught.

This course should be taken after the Symptom Management course and continues building your primary palliative care skills – communication, psychosocial support, goals of care, and symptom management. You will explore transitions in care such as survivorship and hospice. You will learn how to create a survivorship care plan and how to best support a patient. The course also covers spiritual care and will teach you how to screen for spiritual distress. Finally, you will learn the requirements for hospice care and practice discussions difficult conversations related to end-of-life care.

Reviewed Oct 22, 2023I wish it was more oriented to practical tips and guidelines to alleviate suffering in patients (e.g., medication, physical therapy, care of patients with dyspnea, management of pain), but the whole course was mostly focused on patient-provider communication. It is important, but only one part of palliative care. I am writing this from a doctor's perspective. I did not learn anything new, to be honest, and I paid a lot of money. I would not recommend the same course for anyone, in case you don't make some changes. I feel disappointed.

Reviewed Dec 9, 2020My gosh! The peer review is taking forever and I have to grade 3 people for every course. That will take forever. Make it more measurable and don't put you can finish as fast as you could. Because it is not real. even though we finish early, we have to wait forever. You are doing the peer review so people would get stuck and pay a monthly subscription or encourage other people to join your course. You guys just want to suck money out of people. Horrible! Horrendous!
