Foundations of Hospice and Palliative Massage
16 CE hours
Online modules plus two live video sessions
Licensed massage therapists and bodyworkers
The full grounding: what hospice is, how the interdisciplinary team works, what changes in a body near the end of life, and how to adapt everything you already know to a person who is fragile, medicated and tired.
What we cover
- How hospice and palliative care actually work, and where massage fits
- Reading a chart, taking report, charting what you did
- Contraindications, precautions and the myths that still circulate
- Pressure, pace and duration for a fragile body
- Positioning in a hospital bed, a recliner and a wheelchair
- Working with the family in the room
- Scope, boundaries and your own grief
