Impact of a contemplative end-of-life training program: Being with dying
Palliative & Supportive Care, 12/03/09
Rushton CH et al. – The quality of presence has the potential to transform the care of dying people and the caregivers themselves. Cultivating this quality within themselves and others allows clinicians to explore alternatives to exclusively intellectual, procedural, and task–oriented approaches when caring for dying people. BWD provides a rare opportunity to engage in practices and methods that cultivate the stability of mind and emotions that may facilitate compassionate care of dying patients, families, and caregivers.

| Contemplative practice has the potential to transform care of people living with life-threatening conditions by cultivating a qualilty of being within clinicians that invites compassionate action. The Being With Dying program is a unique opportunity for interdiscilinary clinicians to explore the deeper meanings of their work and to learn new ways of working together to improve the quality of living and dying of their patients and families. Armed with a new vision for palliative and end of life care, new opportunities to transform clinical practice, education, policy and research emerge.
