Last October 27, 2021, The Ruth Foundation, in partnership with Asian Hospital and Medical Center, Asia Cancer Institute: Chrysanthemum 2, Makati Medical Center’s Palliative Care Unit and De La Salle Health Sciences Institute: College of Nursing, launched a free training session via Zoom called, Home Not Alone Revisited: A practical guide to home palliative care. This training session was attended by 102 participants, including doctors, nurses, caregivers, therapists, social workers and other healthcare providers.
Each topic was presented as simple as possible by the resource speakers. Dr. Resty Tan answered the question when to seek help from caregiver burnout; Dr. Maddie Mallillin shared mindfulness techniques to keep us grounded during these testing times; Dr Aimee Barrion, shared basic pain management. The Multidisciplinary team shared their experiences and thoughts on each role as doctor (Dr. Joey Joson and Dr. Eula Cheng), nurse (Nurse Cheng Añonuevo and Nurse Mitch Talavera), social worker (Ms. Lira Tañamor), physical therapist (Sir Tim Rivero) and spiritual care porovider (Ms. Cottie Del Rosario).
This event was hosted by Dr. Arabelle Ofina and Dr. Mark Joseph Mendoza
