Beth Israel Medical Center, New York, NY
Nurses are invited to attend a symposium on best practices in pain medicine
and palliative care. The nurse’s role in the evolving fields of pain medicine
and palliative care is fundamental. Whether assessing and managing a patient’s
pain in a hospital setting, or working as a member of an interdisciplinary team
caring for palliative care or hospice patients, nurses positively influence
patient outcomes.
As the fields of pain medicine and palliative care evolve, nurses need to be
aware of changing practices based on the “best evidence.” As a department
that trains health care professionals in the tenets of pain management and palliative
care, we are pleased to offer this one-day conference for nurses and allied
health professionals. Through a variety of didactic and interactive sessions,
we will highlight the need to understand the changing face of nursing today
and provide an overview of best practices. Please join us for this exciting
educational opportunity.
