Therapeutic imagination in caring for children & adolescents and the potential for wellbeing through the end of life
Kia ora koutou,
We warmly welcome you to the next online Paediatric Palliative Care Education Forum.
Date & Time: 8 - 9am on Tuesday 19 August, 2025
Topic: Therapeutic imagination in caring for children & adolescents and the potential for wellbeing through the end of life
Presented By: Ira Byock, MD, FAAHPM
A developmental approach to caring for seriously ill people enables clinicians to alleviate suffering and foster a sense of life completion and wellbeing. The best care requires competence, shared decision-making, and imagination. Receptive imagination enables clinicians to see the world from a patient’s perspective. Generative imagination can identify opportunities that a patient feels are important but may not have considered possible. Cultivating therapeutic imagination enables clinicians to complete a continuum of human caring and foster wellbeing through the end of life.
