This palliative care webinar expands upon best practices in opioid therapy for pain in patients with serious illness, with a focus on breakthrough pain, opioid titration, and opioid rotation.

The goal of these webinars are to discuss the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of common psychiatric conditions in the seriously ill. One webinar describes the phenomenology and treatment of anxiety disorders along the continuum of care and the other describes the presentation and management of clinical depression and suicidal ideation.

This package describes up-to-date information about the integration of specialist palliative care into the management of patients with congestive heart failure and COPD. It includes a topic focused on the challenging issues surrounding the use of cardiac devices in the population with advanced heart failure.

This package includes three webinars, one focused on the safe and effective use of methadone for pain and two describing the use of nonopioid drugs - the diverse group known as the "adjuvant analgesics" and medical cannabis - that may be useful therapies when combined with opioids or offered instead.

This webinar will provide nurses with information and strategies to implement evidence-based practices to prevent and/or manage wounds in advanced illness.
