August 29, 2018 @ 8:00 am - 9:00 am

Please join us Wednesday at 8am, Patient Family Resource Center Conference Room (Ground Floor, North Carolina Cancer Hospital)

Hosted by the UNC Comprehensive Cancer Support Program (CCSP) and the UNC Palliative Care Program

Presenters:  Carol Henderson

Title:  “The Art of the Condolence Note”

Bio:  In this workshop we will discuss the history of condolence notes and their value for both the recipient and the writer–and how a note from a medical professional can be particularly meaningful and healing. I will demonstrate what makes a note successful and show examples of do’s and don’ts. Participants will each practice writing a note and leave knowing how to tackle this difficult task. I have offered this workshop at medical centers all over the country.
