Community Care Teams cerah.lakeheadu.ca Palliative Care Education for Front-Line Workers in First Nations Communities

Your community care team (1 of 2)  Palliative care honours the person’s choice including the choice to be in his/her community and spend their last days with their friends and family  Palliative care is a community affair involving many people  It is important to plan for care ahead of time  Part of this planning is to find who can provide care and how care can be provided in the home community

Your community care team (2 of 2) Palliative care uses a team approach because the help provided may be very involved and often cannot be carried out by one person The palliative care team is a group of people who work together with a common purpose – to help the person spend their last days as they choose Caring for the Terminally Ill: Honouring the Choices of the People, p

Identifying the community care team (1 of 2)  The person and his/her family are the most important members of the team.  Other members of the team could include friends, nurses, the home care manager, personal support worker, homemakers, the CHR, volunteers, spiritual caregivers, doctors, traditional healers, other community members, etc.

Identifying the community care team (2 of 2) Palliative care providers from outside the community may help with difficult situations, either by phone or by videoconferencing Each member brings his/her own gifts to the team

Communication and the team Before discharge from hospital, or on return to the community, a meeting with the person, the family, community members, and the medical people can be helpful The meeting can be in person, by telephone or by teleconference The aim of the meeting is to develop a plan of care

Why the community team needs to meet Meeting regularly helps to prepare for changes. Some reasons to meet include: to talk about goals of care to solve problems and work out differences to prepare everyone for changes to plan for crisis to provide support for one another to keep communication channels open

Organizing and planning care (1 of 2) Questions to help direct the person’s care Who is the leader of the family? Who can take care of practical chores? What is needed (i.e. medications)? What is available in the community? Who knows about care at the end of life? Are they willing to be part of the care team? Are there people from other places who know about palliative care who can support us?

Organizing and planning care (2 of 2) As well as personal and medical needs there are practical needs to be met: cleaning, cooking, laundry grocery shopping child care organizing visitors and companions ensuring needed equipment is available and in working order

Guiding principles for palliative care teams Sharing responsibility is the key to not “burning out” We are all a part of the individuals care regardless of who the main caregiver is It won’t work unless everyone gains something personally Know your limits and stick to them There is no one right way to do it Anyone who wants to help should be encouraged Trust the group; support each other Keep your own life in good working order

“A single arrow is easily broken, but not ten in a bundle” Japanese Proverb Teams share the burden and divide the grief” Doug Smith
