active dying and the final days of life

Join Claritza Rios, palliative care physician, for an informal and interactive conversation on signs of active dying and navigating the final days of life.

Dying is a part of life, but it's unlike the rest of life in important ways. There are things to consider both directly before, and directly after, a death: what to expect from the body, sitting vigil, cultural and religious ceremony, pronouncing the death, considering burial versus cremation, as well as ways to memorialize loved ones. Together, we’ll explore real life examples and address your questions on the topic.

All online discussions begins with a basic overview of the day’s topic before opening up to the group for Q&A and conversation. This session should feel as supportive as it does educational, so bring your questions and comments, or feel free to just listen. Together, we’ll explore real life examples and address your questions on the topic.

Discussions are held online and once registered, you will receive a link via email to join on video or by phone.

If you can't make it to the live session you will receive a recording.
