Medical professionals will work with dying patients in all disciplines, and the process is difficult as care shifts from eliminating or mitigating illness to preparing for death. This is a difficult transition for patients, their loved ones, and healthcare providers to undergo. This activity provides paradigms for the process of moving toward death as well as a discussion of how they should and should not be applied, supporting the interprofessional team to address the unique needs of their patients and guide them and their loved ones through the process.

Pressure injuries, sometimes referred to as pressure ulcers, are injuries to the skin and the tissue below that are a result of pressure on the skin for a long time. Pressure injuries most often arise on skin that covers bony areas of the body, such as the heels, ankles, hips and tailbone. People who are most at risk of pressure injuries have medical conditions that keep them from changing positions or spend most of their time in a bed or a chair. Most pressure injuries heal with treatment, but some never heal completely.

The demands of caring for others can lead to high levels of stress in even the best of times. We all face our own set of stressors, related to work or life outside of work. All of these stressors impact our wellness and capacity as caregivers. Regulation activities can help us shift from a state of fear and overwhelm to a state of calm and focus. We invite you to try out some of the exercises from the videos in this module.
