DIGNITY CONSERVING THERAPY WORKSHOP
Places in Professor Harvey Chochinov's Dignity Conserving Therapy Workshop are limited and as a result places will be allocated through an application process.
The technique will be taught in two days of intensive inter-active training to experienced health care professionals who have strong communication and counselling skills.
During the registration process you will be asked to address the following criteria:
Experience in counselling (e.g. list current qualifications)
Indication of your current place of employment (palliative care or oncology fields will be given preference)
Indication of how you believe the new skills learnt in this workshop will translate into patient care.
Applicants will then be contacted within 2 weeks of their application with the result. Successful applicants will then be issued with an invoice for payment which must be paid by 30 September in order for their place in the workshop to be confirmed.
Due to overwhelming interest we will consider every application for the Dignity Therapy workshop and a decision will be made on the merit of each application taking into account our limitations in numbers. Applicants will be notified within two weeks of the receipt of their application.
