Artificial nutrition and hydration (ANH) can be a contentious issue in hospice, palliative care, and long-term care. This medical treatment has been identified as one of the most common ethical dilemmas in end-of-life (EOL) care.

This educational program, produced by the Hospice Foundation of America:

  • Explores medical, legal, ethical issues, and communication barriers around ANH
  • Emphasizes the need for EOL providers and organizations to have clear and transparent policies on ANH
  • Emphasizes need to offer training to staff and education for families to minimize misunderstanding and discord

Continuing Education credits are available for a wide range of professions.
You may register for credits online after the event. There is a fee for CE credits
