I’m glad I had participated in Specialization in Palliative care, and I invite everyone that is a provider, caregiver, or have a family member with a severe limiting life illness to join, too!

All the instructors are specialists and highlighted knowledgeable in Palliative Care.

I loved the themes as Self-awareness, the importance to be present, the empathy aspect, The Suffering, and its complexity and amplitude.

The Specialization covered the Pain Management, Physical Symptoms, and Aspects Psychosocial and Spiritual of the Palliative Care, and are very well explained and complemented with videos and a lot of resources.

I want to thank the University of Colorado – Anschutz Medical Campus, Instructors, and Coursera for the opportunity to participate in this Specialization course about Palliative Care: It’s not Hospice Anymore.

I’m sure that my Specialization Certificate will make a high impact on my resume.

Reviewing others’s story of sufferings of the terminally ill helps to build up the very important clinical sense of empathy. Always try to care about others and think about how do we feel when such an event or happening occurred to us. This will make us a better person.

Excelentes aprendizajes, excelentes reflexiones, que lo invitan a uno a ser mejor clínico. Gracias a los maestros por sus enseñanzas. Sobre todo gracias, porque ahora podremos cuidar mejor de nuestros pacientes terminales.

Realmete se puede aprender del el lado humano del cuidado paliativo algo que muchos prestadores de salud hemos olvidado. Gracias

I have completed this interesting Capstone Project!

Excellent course, that was well worth taking.

The projects are very involved and ensure real soul searching. . Each offers opportunity for one to go deeper into the subject matter. They have enabled me to review and read more on the core content of each project. They have made me go deeper into the subject matter, and I took time working with patients and their families with whom I worked through the projects. I have continued working with some of the patients and their families, long after the assignment was completed and submitted.

Thank you for a great course. I have learnt a great deal.

I am very thankful with all the TEAM .

It´s a great course.

Es injusto el tiempo requerido para la calificación de los trabajos. Pero lo peor, es que la calificación la hacen personas que no se toman la molestia de leer lo que uno escribe, dan un mal puntaje y no justifican por qué.

Es una falta de respeto

This was a great specialty. As a Life Enrichment Manager in an Assisted Living Community this speciality gave me a deeper understanding of Palliative Care and meeting the needs of the clients and families that are facing these serious illnesses in their lives.

The presenters in this course were well credentialed and I learned a lot from them. There was just too much redundancy and too much waste of time. I would think that most of the students in this class were professionals, not sixth graders. I didn't like the waste of time with the little pauses to check learning almost immediately aftr something was said. Please for professional courses, present the information succinctly with the relevant references and evidence and if you really need to assess our learning - do so. But 3-5 minute sections are a huge waste of time. Present the information in 20-30 minute blocks of time; eliminate redundancy and assess our knowledge at the appropriate times. There were also many required and optional readings that were not accessible. Some of the quiz formatting was really messed up - so that wasted even more time. Someone needs to go through the entire course and either delete the readings that are not accessible or replace them and try taking the tests to check the formatting.

Waiting to complete was frustrating waiting for peer review element.

Am glaqd to be done FINALLY

good
