This is truly a reality check as we gracefully age. As an slp, I was proactive in my father-in-laws decision to seek in homecare vs a facility. I think it is critical that we listen closely to the wants and needs of the dying patient! This course was all about being compassionate toward the dying.

The most important point made concerns the LANGUAGE that we use when discussing "end of life issues" with patients. The saddest moment in my life was when my Father's Geriatric Physician asked him how long he wanted to live, and didn't Dad think it was time to die??? My Father responded quietly "if I have to die, I will die". This influenced & depressed my Father so much that he never was motivated to talk or to participate in anything again. He DID NOT have a terminal illness, but was in constant pain. One pain shot of Demerol put him into an almost vegetative state, went into Hospice, and died 3 days later. Later the doctor said "I didn't know my words could have such an impact". This was from a GERIATRIC PHYSICIAN....my Dad was 95 and his generation believed whatever the Doctor said was gold. He had told me he was AFRAID to die. I feel tremendous guilt about not being able to talk to him about his feelings..the talk with me, the doctor, and the shot all happened in one day, and 4 days later Dad was gone. Please remember YOUR words are so very important as therapists, doctors, nurses etc. & make a tremendous impact on the elderly who are facing their impending death (be it weeks, months, or even years).

As a retired SLP, much of my non paid work in this profession is brainstorming with family and friends about the best possible end of life care for a loved one. I especially was enlightened about how the SLP is of such strong value even in a Hospice setting - when many, including physicians, want to cease all auxiliary services, including speech therapy.

The insights from experience that are shared are very valuable to anyone with less experience. The course covers a tremendous amount of material in a way that is not overwhelming in the one-hour format. The referenced resources offer how to extend the course further.

The overall "practical approach" to a very complex circumstance is refreshing an valuable, and while practical it in no way avoids or looks away from the thorny issues that can and do arise during end of life care. Even where I disagree with specific points, those points are presented and argued cogently.
