About The Session
An informative presentation on recognizing the signs and symptoms of someone who is actively dying and in the final stages of life. This session will provide caregivers, people with advanced illnesses, family members and health care professionals, with the knowledge needed to identify physical, emotional, and behavioural changes as people near the end of life.
