Presenter Polly Mazanec PhD, ACNP-C, AOCN, ACHPN, FPCN, FAAN Project Director for ELNEC Undergraduate and ELNEC Graduate Nursing Education and Research Associate Professor at Case Western, ELNEC Webinar New Wave of Palliative Care: Not Just for Specialists NCP for Quality Palliative Care: Guidelines Released Over 40% of Americans are living with one or more chronic diseases, making diagnoses and care plans even more complex. The acuity of comorbidities compounds over time and can lead to life-threatening illnesses— growing the need for medical and nursing care that can relieve symptoms, pain, and stress. With the limited number of nurses able to provide this specialized care, there is a steadily growing demand for all care providers to utilize primary palliative care skills. The goal is to treat the whole person, in addition to the disease, to improve overall quality of life. Palliative care is not just for specialists anymore! Join Relias and the End of Life Nursing Education Consortium (ELNEC) as we discuss the impact of the newly released 4th edition of the National Consensus Project (NCP) Guidelines for Quality Palliative Care, released October 31, 2018. Learn how to integrate these new guidelines to expand the use of palliative care across all clinical settings and in the community to improve care for patients with a serious illness and their families. During this webinar we: Describe the history of the evolution of palliative care beyond specialty care Identify the new key concepts, themes, and major revisions to the 4th edition of the NCP Guidelines for Quality Palliative Care Discuss aspects of the new NCP Guidelines which apply directly to community-based palliative care Watch the Webinar now Name* First Last Email* Phone*Job Title* Company* Industry*Select an IndustryAddiction & Substance AbuseApplied Behavior Analysis & AutismAssisted LivingBehavioral HealthChildren, Youth and FamiliesCognitive and Vocational RehabilitationCommunity & Rural HealthContinuing Care Retirement CommunityEmergency Medical Services (EMS)Home Health CareHospice & Palliative CareHospitals & Health SystemsIntellectual & Developmental DisabilitiesOccupational TherapyPayers & Health PlansPersonal Home CarePhysical TherapyPublic SafetyRespiratory TherapySkilled Nursing & Long Term CareSocial ServicesSpecial Education & SchoolsSpeech Language PathologyStaffing AgencyNumber of EmployeesState*Select a StateAlabamaAlaskaArizonaArkansasCaliforniaColoradoConnecticutDelawareFloridaGeorgiaHawaiiIdahoIllinoisIndianaIowaKansasKentuckyLouisianaMaineMarylandMassachusettsMichiganMinnesotaMississippiMissouriMontanaNebraskaNevadaNew HampshireNew JerseyNew MexicoNew YorkNorth CarolinaNorth DakotaOhioOklahomaOregonPennsylvaniaRhode IslandSouth CarolinaSouth DakotaTennesseeTexasUtahVermontVirginiaWashingtonWest VirginiaWisconsinWyomingCountry*CountryUnited StatesAfghanistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBoliviaBonair, Sint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCambodiaCameroonCanadaCape VerdeCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos IslandsColombiaComorosCongo, Democratic Republic of theCongo, Republic of theCook IslandsCosta RicaCroatiaCubaCuraçaoCyprusCzech RepublicCôte d'IvoireDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEswatini (Swaziland)EthiopiaFalkland IslandsFaroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaHaitiHeard and McDonald IslandsHoly SeeHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIranIraqIrelandIsle of ManIsraelItalyJamaicaJapanJerseyJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People's Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacauMacedoniaMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMicronesiaMoldovaMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorth KoreaNorthern Mariana IslandsNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestine, State ofPanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalPuerto RicoQatarRomaniaRussiaRwandaRéunionSaint HelenaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint MartinSaint Pierre and MiquelonSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSint MaartenSlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth GeorgiaSouth KoreaSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan Mayen IslandsSwedenSwitzerlandSyriaTaiwanTajikistanTanzaniaThailandTimor-LesteTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkeyTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluUS Minor Outlying IslandsUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited KingdomUruguayUzbekistanVanautuVenezuelaVietnamVirgin Islands, BritishVirgin Islands, U.S.Wallis and FutunaWestern SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabweÅland Islands
