Workshop by Dr. Ira Byock

$25 registration, This CME Activity is approved for AMA PRA category 1 credits

The problem-based model of medicine does not address the profoundly personal experience of dying. During this workshop, Dr. Byock will present tools for understanding the nature of suffering and the opportunities associated with the time of life we call 'dying." He will use stories to illustrate a therapeutic approach to fostering development at the end of life that can empower participants to alleviate suffering and guide the dying to a satisfying sense of completion and closure.
