I agreed 100% with the information from the presenter. Having experienced the death of both my parent within a 2 year period, I had to be the strong advocate for both of them while ensuring they had the best possible care, comforting them the best I could, and honoring their every wish. At the end of the day, it was my privilege to be there for them at the end of their lives.

This topic was excellent! It is one that I know very little about, and Dr. Stead provided important information for me as a professional as well as an 'aging' person (75 yrs) with older siblings. She was articulate in her delivery and well-organized. Topics were explained well. Graphics enhanced my understanding. I found very helpful her references to books and the Netfilx series which I plan to access. Dr. Stead got me interested in reading more about dying.

The instructor took it at a good pace, her voice was nice to listen to for the 3 hrs. I very much appreciate the frank discussions about typically taboo topics - religion, personal experiences, and bringing counseling into these sessions. Practical info that I can use with my patients tomorrow and for years to come. Thank you for broaching a subject that is needed (I use it on a weekly basis at my position) and wasn't touched on when I went to grad school.
