Caring for families facing aging or illness can be both meaningful and stressful, and holding space for other people’s suffering without actively taking care of your own well-being can lead to compassion fatigue and burnout. In this session you will learn how to develop your healing presence, master heart-centered communication, and actively take care of you, so you can fully show up for both your patients and yourself.
Delia Chiaramonte, MD, MS, is an integrative palliative medicine physician passionate about physician education. She spent a decade as the Associate Director and Director of Education for the Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Maryland medical school, and she is board certified in palliative medicine. Most recently, she ran an integrative palliative medicine program, serving mostly cancer patients. Seeing the power of this unique model, Dr. Chiaramonte started The Institute for Integrative Palliative Medicine with the goal of training 1,000 physicians to provide “whole person care for people with serious illness using all the tools that work.”
