Course content

The course includes a self-experience and seminar part. In the self-experience part, students work in groups with pre-filled questionnaires that reflect their thoughts about their experiences with dying, death and losses in life. The emphasis is on becoming aware of the emotions associated with death and coping with mortality. In the seminar part, students learn the principles of communication with dying patients and methods of supporting survivors, which they practice in triads (doctor - client - observer), while working with case studies from the practice of palliative care and survivor counselors.

Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the seminar is to respond to the students' experiences from practice, during which they encounter dying patients and survivors. Students are guided to reflect on their own experiences in the area of ??death, dying and mourning, their acceptance and coping with them. They learn to identify the needs of the dying, focusing on their social relationships, psychological experiences, and spiritual orientation and to respond to them. They will gain insight into the area of ??psychological, social and spiritual support and care for survivors, which will be presented through case studies from the practice of counselors for survivors. They will become familiar with the principles of communication with the dying and their families, which they will practice on model situations provided from the clinical practice.
Students are able to perceive death as a natural part of life and understand the needs of the dying and their families, have a concrete idea of ??human dignity with regard to dying, have knowledge of the principles of communication with the dying client and his family, as well as the phase of coping with death in clients and families, and are able to apply them in practice within the framework of communication.
