The information provided in this course was excellent. I am a school-based SLP, so although I most likely won't typically use these skills in my career, there are times that we do have students who have medical complications and do pass away during childhood. So, this is good information for me to know. To be honest, this is good information for everyone to know. It would be great to know this information before being thrown into a situation, career or personal, and having to learn on the spot.

Good course, confirmed what I knew from my owner experience. I was suprised to see the course offered because in my experience SLP services get cut off pretty quick as soon as the patience gets moved to hospice. (not all the time, but often)

The presenter's obvious dedication to the teachings of the course. Her honest answers "I don't know" to certain questions.Since I am almost 86, I found the information to be valuable and hope that a course of this nature is presented to physicians as part of their training and to hospital staff as part of employment training.

Few specifics about best ways to provide and best choices for assistive devices.Few specifics about continutity of comunication among home health aids who might be present. ALso instructinfg them e.g., Invariably, one will ask a patient with dementia, "What did you have for lunch today?" One hears a criticism about SLP's - often justified I am afraid - is their focus on swallowing and not practical ways to help pts understand and express themselves

Time to normalize conversations re spiritual and religious beliefs, especially to honor a patient's belief system. Emotional and spiritual states impact health throughout life and especially during end of life. I truly enjoyed spiritual and literary references which elevated the conversation for a broader understanding of the meaning of life. In my opinion, this does not conflict with a scientific model which should include all variables
