75. End of Life Discussions in Medical Social Work

This week I’m sharing about my 7 years of experiences with End of Life Discussions in Medical Social Work.  What settings are these types of conversations happening? Why is this conversation avoided even by some doctors? What makes Social Workers perfectly suited to have these conversations? If you are new to the field if medical social work, starting work in a Skilled Nursing Facility, Dialysis Center, Hospice, Hospital, etc. then this is for you! POLST Basics for Medical Social Workers virtual course will help you start these conversations with patients so it is less awkward and more productive. Yes, it's worth the investment. __________________________________ It’s Catherine here; let’s get connected: Instagram @SocialWorkersRise  Connect on LinkedIn   Tap Here to Subscribe to our Email Resource List RISE Directory - A national directory of Clinical Supervisors who are looking to help the next generation of Clinical Social Workers GROW.
