Would you like to gain knowledge and expanded awareness of the dying and grief journey while exploring the development and delivery of palliative care in India?

Joined by UI Professor Stephanie Gilbertson-White, students will contrast the principles and practices of palliative care in an insurance-driven environment such as the U.S. with the philanthropic model in India. With a combination of didactic classroom sessions, service projects, home visits, and rounds in the inpatient units, students will develop an understanding of the needs of the seriously ill in a low resource environment.

Program dates: Dec. 28, 2019 – Jan. 15, 2020

Instructor: Professor Stephanie Gilbertson-White, PhD, ARNP
