Living with a chronic illness is no longer an outlier experience, given that a substantial portion of the population is diagnosed with and accessing care for one or more conditions. Despite this being both a real and challenging health circumstance for many, much of the narrative concerning this lived experience has been overwhelmingly medical and anchored to the physical consequences of having an illness—thus eclipsing the critical behavioral health, relational, and even existential consequences of having a chronic and even life-threatening condition.
This training will provide attendees with critical information on supporting an individual at the time of diagnosis as well as how to support and intervene across the individual’s illness trajectory with attention to the ethical concepts of individual autonomy and self-determination in and throughout the care process.
