We believe that empathic, honest conversations are cornerstones of patient and family-centered care. Research shows that patients who speak with their clinicians about their goals and values are more likely to receive the care they want, have fewer non-beneficial medical treatments, spend fewer days in hospitals and intensive care units, and report a better quality of life.

Join Ben R. Clements, MD, UVM Assistant Professor of Family Medicine and Kacey Boyle, MSPC, RN, CHPN, Associate Director of TalkVermont in this full-day, safe, small group workshop and practice realistic conversations with simulated, trained patients. The workshop registration includes continental breakfast, lunch, and meeting supplies. Please visit the course website to access the registration portal.
