Hope for the Best, Plan for the Rest: Navigating a Life Changing Diagnosis **2 NASW CEUs pending**

As part of the OABHI 2025 Geriatric Competencies Series, join for a free workforce development training by Dr. Samantha Winemaker and Dr. Hsien Seow. Drs. Winemaker and Seow are authors of the new book ‘Hope for the Best, Plan for the Rest’ and co-hosts of the podcast ‘The Waiting Room Revolution,’ which are designed to make a palliative care approach accessible to all patients and families. Based on researching and caring for thousands of patients, they will share 7 keys that can activate clients and families to have a better illness journey. These keys are simple to understand, easy to implement, and applicable at any stage in the illness journey.

Participants will learn:

-What an early palliative care approach is (and isn’t)
-The 7 keys that can lead clients and families to an ‘in the know’ experience.
-How you can use the 7 keys to be more proactive and less crisis-driven, by working more upstream and client-facing.
