About the Class

This course is designed to help people who are caring for a friend, family member or patient who is living with a life-threatening illness. It is based on evidence from holistic nursing practice, research, and the biological, behavioral, and social sciences.

Participants will deepen their competence and confidence in caring for both the ill person and themselves.

The author’s viewpoint is based on four principles:

  • Holism (from Greek holos, meaning "all, whole, entire"): the idea that systems (e.g., physical, biological, chemical, social, mental, environmental, etc.) and their properties must be viewed as wholes that are synergistic and more elegantly powerful than just collections of their parts
  • Our spirit does not die. It leaves the body and continues living
  • By facing the reality of death, we receive vital gifts that empower us to joyfully live
  • We are filled with love and light when we support each other to live and leave in peace

Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:

  • Deepen your competence and confidence in caring for both the ill person and yourself
  • Recognize the differences in the way people experienced serious illness and death in 1900 as compared to now
  • Describe examples of how illness and death have been viewed as community-enriching experiences in long-lasting indigenous cultures
  • Identify the most important things to do when giving emotional support to a person who has a life-threatening illness
  • List the most effective responses that support a person who’s struggling
