Oral Considerations at End of Life
Mickey Wener, RDH, MEd and Mary Bertone, RDH, BSc(DH)
A palliative care approach focuses on comfort and quality of life for those affected by life-threatening illness. Palliative care is not location specific, but can occur in an individual’s home, a personal care home, or specialized palliative care units. Dental hygienists can play an important role in helping support individuals who are at this challenging stage of their life. This presentation will provide information about palliative care, common end-of-life oral health issues, and strategies to promote oral function and comfort.
