Ethical and Clinical Considerations in Dementia Advance Care Planning
Advance Care Planning (ACP) is a cornerstone of palliative care practice and continues to evolve to meet the diverse needs of different communities. For people living with dementia (PWD), ACP has gained significant attention in education, advocacy, and clinical documentation. This session will explore the unique ethical challenges and clinical complexities of ACP for PWD, providing insights for professionals seeking to enhance their approach to this important aspect of care.

THU, JAN 16 | SPECIAL EVENT
Brought to you by SWHPN in collaboration with You’re Going to Die (YG2D)
Building on the success of our past session, Tending to Professional Grief, we invite you to a unique follow-up experience: an open mic dedicated to exploring and sharing the profound emotions inherent in working with serious illness, loss, and end-of-life care.
This is a communal offering for the hospice and palliative care clinician community to intimately meet in the shared experience of what it means to do the work we do. It is a space—with laughter and tears—to grieve the losses, honor the beauty, and connect creatively and vulnerably. Together, we will listen and be listened to, remembering that we are not alone.
3PM - 5PM EST | 12PM - 2PM PST
$30 for SWHPN Members | $45 for Non-Members
WED, JAN 29 | FREE CE WEBINAR
Caring for people facing serious and life-limiting illness is challenging at the best of times. Ethical dilemmas are commonplace in this field, and social workers are often at the forefront in addressing these issues.
Join us in an interactive session that will give participants an opportunity to consider some common scenarios in palliative care practice that involve ethical dilemmas, and to discuss how they might approach these situations. We will talk through some case studies, how we might initially respond, and then discuss the application of NASW standards and how they might help to direct our approach. We will also consider institutional guidelines and how these might influence our perspectives.
