  Oct. 8, 2025 - Mar. 4, 2026

  Family physicians play an integral role in providing palliative care and supporting patients and their families with advanced illness. The Palliative Care eLearning Program aims to improve your knowledge and skills in palliative and end-of-life care, and support your involvement with local and regional palliative care initiatives.

  Each webinar, facilitated by a palliative care expert, focuses on individual competency-based assessment and collaborative knowledge building discourse. Patient cases and an extensive library of resources are used to support knowledge translation to practice, to help you to perform a palliative care assessment with the most up-to-date tools and create a coherent treatment plan that addresses patient, family, and caregiver needs. The webinars will review palliative care resources and tools and how they can be incorporated into practice to ensure efficient and comprehensive assessments. The necessity of effective communication will also be covered throughout the webinars.

  Learn how to identify patients in your practice that would benefit from a palliative approach to their care. Upon completion of this program, you'll be equipped to appropriately assess and manage pain and other symptoms, recognize palliative care emergencies, discuss goals of care, and consider psychosocial needs of patients with advanced illness. In addition, develop strategies for physician self-care, life-long learning, and maintaining a sustainable practice.
