North West Regional Palliative Care Program
This series ran from September 27 to November 8, 2022
The North West Regional Palliative Care Program, St. Josephs’s Care Group, and the Centre for Education and Research on Aging & Health (CERAH), Lakehead University, explored Indigenous and Westernized ways of knowing in caring for Indigenous peoples who are seriously ill.
Co-chaired by Holly Prince and Dr. Kevin Bezanson, this series explored how two-eyed seeing, equity- and trauma-informed approaches to care can create opportunities for culturally safer care and identify current resources and tools available to support caring for Indigenous peoples who are seriously ill. Participants were invited to bring real patient cases to a session to discuss challenges and strengths to care with the team and their peers.
