Palliative Care Immersion Course
The Palliative Care Immersion Course is a cornerstone of Four Seasons Consulting Group’s dynamic educational offerings. It is meticulously developed and rich in content, enhancing attendees’ competencies and knowledge in palliative care.
In this modern virtual learning environment, instructors provide didactic sessions, facilitated role play, critiques, and situational modeling of mock patient-provider interactions. These activities are designed to engage and challenge palliative care providers at all levels.
The course curriculum addresses clinical issues such as symptom management, ethics, goal setting, and communication techniques. It also helps participants understand critical factors that impact the financial model of palliative care programs. Education throughout the course focuses on improving sustainability through effective billing and coding, setting visit expectations, and transitioning patients to hospice.
