While palliative care is designed to ease suffering in patients at any age and stage of serious illness, caring for pediatric patients differs from palliative care for adults, and requires an extra level of skill. The Certificate in Clinical Pediatric Palliative Care delivers in-depth, evidence-based clinical skills, and strategies for pediatric specialists or hospice, palliative care, and home health professionals, who want to learn effective strategies for caring for infants, children, teens, and young adults with serious or terminal illnesses.
