Overview:
In order to have an all-star team…there must be an all-star leader at the helm! Managing volunteers is not all fun and games like it is misperceived to be at times. There are regulations to meet, challenges to overcome, fires to put out and many hats to wear. A strong and skilled volunteer leader is essential for the successful management of a team that is almost solely remote and at the heart of all we do.
Objectives:
- Identify skills needed to be an effective volunteer manager amidst the many hats that must be worn.
- Understand the significant role a strong volunteer leader plays in building and maintaining a successful program.
- Understand the importance of teambuilding and how a strong volunteer leader can positively impact your leadership team and your organization as a whole.

November 14 at 3pm CST/2pm MST
Caregivers are the backbone of the US health care system, particularly for people living with serious illness such as Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias. While palliative care goes a long way in supporting these patients, there continue to be more opportunities to optimize how we support caregivers. These range from better integrating caregivers into goals of care conversations and facilitating practical training to prepare for the physical and mental aspects of caregiving in the home, to connecting them with meaningful resources in their communities.
In this webinar, CAPC’s Andy Esch, MD, MBA, is joined by leaders from the Alzheimer’s Association and Hospice of the Valley’s Dementia Care and Education Campus to discuss this and more. Together they will share strategies for how to better support caregivers, including addressing some of the structural limitations that can hinder this work. Participants will leave with tools to implement targeted changes that can greatly improve the outcomes of caregivers and patients alike.

At least 13 million Americans are living with a serious illness like cancer, heart failure, or dementia. While much progress has been made to improve access to palliative care and other key health care supports for this population, significant gaps remain.

Together, they will review each state’s readiness and capacity to meet the needs of people living with a serious illness, and their families and caregivers. This briefing will highlight national trends and provide practical, actionable recommendations for state policymakers, palliative care champions, and advocates to improve care within their own state or organization.
