A #PalliativeApproach isn't only about the final days. It's about integrating comfort, planning, and conversations from the time a person moves into #LongTermCare.

Take a moment to reflect:
How can I provide a palliative approach in my role?
Where do I want to build more confidence?

Care focuses on recognizing and relieving symptoms early. Addressing comfort is a key aspect of a #PalliativeApproach to care aligned with the resident's values & goals for their comfort, functionality, & well-being.

Reflect: How do I recognize & respond to symptoms early?

In #LongTermCare, declining health is expected. Proactive #CarePlanning helps prepare residents and families for changes, ensuring care reflects their values and preferences.

Now reflect: How can I support residents to live well today while also planning ahead?

Why should a #PalliativeApproach be part of everyday care in #LongTermCare settings, and not just at end of life?

In this video, Kathleen reflects on her experiences. This week, during #NHPCW, we're inviting you to pause, reflect, & explore this question.
