If you’re looking for a way to advance your knowledge of palliative care, we’ve got a great resource for you.  The Shiley Palliative Care Institute through California State University has numerous courses available to help you learn palliative care skills. Jerry talks about his certificates in both basic and advanced spiritual counseling in palliative care.  Courses designed for nurses, NPs, social workers, and generalists (lay persons) are also available through the Shiley Institute.  These certificates are great ways to prepare for taking a certification course.  You’ll find information on how to participate in the courses at csupalliativecare.org.  Connect with Helen and Jerry, find their bios, and see what services The Heart of Hospice can offer you at theheartofhospice.com.  If you have a question, send an email to [email protected].  We’re always open to suggestions for topics you’d like to hear us discuss on the podcast.  And remember - we’re on this hospice journey with you.  You are The Heart of Hospice!
