OVERVIEW:
Moral distress is a common yet often unspoken experience among healthcare professionals working in pediatric palliative care. Clinicians may encounter situations where medical recommendations, family decisions, personal values, or institutional practices conflict, creating emotional and ethical tension. This presentation explores the sources of moral distress, validates the impact it has on clinicians, and offers practical strategies for building resilience, maintaining compassion, and continuing to provide family-centered care even in challenging circumstances.
OBJECTIVES:
By attending this training, you will be able to:
1. Define moral distress and recognize its impact on healthcare professionals.
2. Identify common situations that contribute to moral distress in pediatric palliative care.
3. Differentiate between personal values, professional responsibilities, and family-centered decision-making.
4. Discuss practical strategies for managing moral distress while promoting personal well-being and compassionate patient care.
AGENDA (all times are Eastern):
8:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. Presentation
PRESENTER BIO:
Gabrielle “Gabby” Jimenez is a hospice nurse, an end-of-life doula, and a conscious dying educator. She has written four books, writes a weekly blog, and has a hospice Facebook page that has more than 178,000 followers. Her focus is on trying to change the culture relative to death and dying by helping others to feel more comfortable talking about death. And while she sees a lot of death, what she really finds joy in is her lessons, which are about love, life, culture, tradition, and faith. She combines her experience as a hospice nurse with her in-depth doula training to help her to be more present at the bedside, bringing both patient and family together at that intimate moment of death. She teaches courses on end-of-life care that are helpful to anyone who works in this field, offering guidance to people who are navigating or caring for someone who has a terminal illness. She also teaches two Ritual & Ceremony classes; one that focuses on grief and loss, and another that focuses on forgiveness of self and others. The legacy she hopes to leave behind is that she helped improve the way people are cared for when they die, and that she inspired others to do this work well.
