OVERVIEW:

“Removing Fear and Uncertainty at the End of Life” provides social workers, counselors, case managers, and nurses with essential knowledge to support individuals and families through the dying process. The training will explore the physiological changes that occur near death, such as changes in breathing and skin, the cessation of food and water, and the administration of medications. Attendees will also learn about the death rattle and how to interpret signs that death is imminent. By understanding these phenomena, professionals can alleviate fear and provide compassionate guidance to those in their care.

OBJECTIVES:

By attending this training, you will be able to:

• Identify and explain the common physiological signs indicating that an individual is nearing the end of life, including breath and skin changes.
• Explain the role of medications at the end of life, focusing on their use for symptom management and comfort care.
• Demonstrate effective communication strategies for addressing family concerns about end-of-life signs, such as the death rattle, cessation of food and water, and other physiological changes.

PRESENTER BIO:

Gabrielle Jimenez, LVN, CHPLN, hospice nurse, end-of-life doula, author, educator, and founder of The Hospice Heart with over 147,000 followers

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 with 147,000 followers. Her focus is on trying to change the culture relative to death and dying, 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 someone who is 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.
