SUMMARY:Palliative Care Myth Busting Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Many people think palliative care is all about dying. It is actually about living more than it is about dying. Many also think that palliative care is only provided at end of life. Actually\, \npalliative care is an approach which can be initiated right at the time of a serious illness diagnosis\, and can be provided for years. \nThis webinar discusses many of the myths about palliative care through engaging conversation and discussion of the palliative care supports available in our community. \nThis program is presented by Bethell Hospice Social Workers Kaylen Leonienco\, MSW RSW and Carlie Fink\, MSW RSW\, and is offered in partnership with the Caledon Public Library. For more information\, contact Caledon Public Library at 905-857-1400. Register online at: https://cpl.social/PalliativeCareMythbusting
