What to Print

1. Self-Inventory “How Do I Feel”, completed and scored, with the strengths and weaknesses paragraph. Hand it to the facilitator. My completed copy: Self-Inventory response.
2. Breaking Bad News handout (2 pages) and Talking with the Dying Patient handout (5 pages), for the in-class case study and exercises. The handouts come from the course packet and are not posted here; summaries are below.
3. Journal entry, at least 2 pages with 1 scholarly reference (APA). It is emailed to the lead faculty at the end of the workshop; bring a printed copy as a backup.
