HHWN: Become the Social Worker or Spiritual Caregiver You Aspire to Be
Thursday, November 17, 2022, 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM PDT
Category: Live Webinar

Defining your role as a hospice social worker or spiritual caregiver is just the beginning.

Take the next step to truly define who you are and where you want to be in your vocation. It is vital to set goals and aspirations to never lose sight of the “why” and to work towards the future with intention. Create a solid foundation and goal to stay true to your calling and give the gift of hospice.
 
AFTER THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:
  • Define the comprehensive roles of hospice social workers and spiritual caregivers
  • List five key criteria of high-level practice for each
  • Explain the concept of “defining moments” and recognize examples that promote or contradict who you want to be in your work
  • Formulate personal and professional goals that are consistent with high-level practice
  • Describe methods for maneuvering around common obstacles
  • Create a plan for future endeavors and goals

WEBINAR DETAILS

Are you the spiritual caregiver or social worker you aspire to be? In general, our best work is done when we connect with people. However, times of great growth do not coincide with complacency. How do you deal with difficult people or those reluctant to “let you in”? Are you sometimes relieved when a family declines social work or spiritual caregiver visits? How do you set goals and celebrate your victories? This webinar will explore those moments that define who we are in our roles – the aspirational and successful experiences that encourage us to keep pursuing our mission and the challenging times that make us question “why.” Learn to appreciate and embrace defining moments to continually raise the bar for exceptional spiritual and social work end-of-life care.

  • Hospice
