End of Life Care Certificate

You must be ready for the challenges that working in end-of-life care will entail for you, your patients, and their loved ones. This end-of-life care certification is designed to improve the skillset and knowledge of health care professionals and those who work with or care for terminally ill individuals.

As a person approaches the end of their life, palliative or end of life care is crucial.
