JOIN a Seminar

 
A Chronic Care Community Corps seminar is 10 hours long and usually held over 2–3 meetings. Through the use of case studies, discussions and role-playing, you will learn how to listen carefully to the reality of caregivers, practice inquiry skills in talking with a caregiver, and identify resources for family caregivers. Seminars are often hosted by community organizations, places of work, places of worship, and other locations.

As a participant, you will explore the following topics:
  • Difficult conversations and discussions during illness
  • Continuity of care during the arc of an illness
  • Family meetings and goals of care
  • Navigating the challenges of health care today
  • Role of family and informal caregivers
  • Role of health care professionals
  • Role of friends and colleagues
