Delirium and Restlessness in the Last Phase of Life: Much Can Be Done!

September 29, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

James A. Avery, MD, CMD, FAAHPM, FCCP, FACP | Webinar – 1.0 CE for both Nurses & Administrators.

Delirium or end-stage restlessness is one of the most devastating occurrences in end-of-life care. Survivors often view it as the single most painful expression of the dying experience. Yet, with a good knowledge base about recent research, much can be done.

Following participation in the webinar, the attendee will be able to:

  •  Give the various “other” names of end-stage restlessness and define the signs and symptoms
  • Tell the practical steps involved in assessing end-stage restlessness and distinguish it from other end-of-life syndromes
  • Understand the four dimensions of human suffering
  • Treat end-stage restlessness effectively and with compassion
