Online Topics Module - POLST Eligibility/Appropriateness

This registration option is for the POLST Eligibility/Appropriateness Topic Module only. It is not for the FULL Online Topics Modules series or the FULL Certificate Program.

Each of the modules in the Online Topics Modules series cover key components of the POLST process, purpose, form, validity, content, signatures, and legal requirements. All the modules were offered live to start, but are now available for on-demand access. Each module is 30 minutes, including didactic content and a real-world case study by a POLST expert. An additional 15-minute Q&A was included in the live presentation and summarized in a handout for the on-demand versions.

There is no continuing education available for individual modules. 

POLST Eligibility/Appropriateness

In this module, we discuss why you might use POLST and with whom (including minors). We will also review when NOT to use POLST and what to use instead to document code status.
