Unlocking Dignity: How to Improve the Reintegration Experience of Justice-involved People with Life-limiting Illnesses into Community
March 6 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am
The BC Centre for Palliative Care invites you to a session on the importance of palliative care for justice-involved individuals with serious or life-limiting illnesses.
Reintegrating after incarceration is complex and requires a coordinated, interdisciplinary approach. Access to patient-centred palliative care is essential for symptom management, dignity, continuity of care, and social support.
This session will explore current community practices, identify gaps and challenges, and discuss innovative strategies to improve access. Through shared knowledge and collaboration, we will envision pathways to ensure justice-involved individuals receive the right care, in the right place, at the right time.
Presenters:
- Iridian Grenada, Advisory Consultant, Justice Reintegration
- Mar’yana Fisher, RN, PhD(c), Palliative Nurse Clinician
