The points on how SLPs should be careful of the language they use when talking to families was vital. Our language could shift a patients outcome. Also our our role as an SLP. We must consult manage swallowing, develop strategies and consult with Hospice team.Thinking about what is best for the patient.

Comment: The info in this course applies to individuals with family members open to and able to understand concepts of a “good death”. I work in nursing homes with patients of lower socioeconomic backgrounds. Most times family members are resistant to allowing a “natural death”. Much blame is placed on professionals involved with care given to a patient who is simply completing the natural order of lifecycle. I guess they need us even more than some.

The presenter was very knowledgeable and conveyed information clearly. I have always understood that hospice was different than therapy and typically Speech Language Pathologists were not to be involved in a patient's care if they were under hospice care. It was very interesting!

Ms. Stead was confusing at first on addressing the legal standards and patient wishes being considered, which made taking the exam a bit more challenging-and it shouldn't have been. The information on dementia and delirium was good overall.

The instructor had a very matter of fact and natural way of talking about this complicated issue. She made it sound so normal and, as I learned from the presentation itself, naturalness in speaking about this issue is an important factor in providing effective end-of-life care and especially in talking with family members.

Excellent pace, information and a very sensitive and empathetic approach to this extremely difficult subject matter. As an SLP and having a close familial relationship with my twin sister, older sister and 2 parents made the "end of life" choices of both parents much easier and I'm so thankful after taking your course that we were fortunate enough to "be on track." We were so appreciative of the entire medical/hospital team, assistive living facility/staff and hospice team---they were phenomenal. Yes, communication was essential and luckily my sisters and I never disagreed as to the what options, treatments, modifications, therapies my parent's would receive. Being an "Asian" family as well we were very fortunate to have parents that were open, communicative and compassionate. Thank you Amanda for this enlightening and very caring discussion of how to gracefully help our families and communities with this challenging phase of life!---you're an amazing human being.
