About the Conference
About the Presenter
Maggie Callanan will present practical education related
to the special needs and communication of the dying.
She will bring clarity to medical and ethical concerns,
explaining what to expect at each various stage.
Since becoming a hospice nurse in
1981, Maggie Callanan has studied,
taught and written about death and
dying. This includes the unique and
symbolic communication of the dying,
which is often labeled as “confused
language” and consequently often
ignored by professional and family
caregivers. Addressing medical, personal, emotional and
spiritual aspects of life’s final journey, Maggie delivers
practical, no-nonsense answers to difficult questions
tempered by humor, wisdom and compassion. She is the
co-author of “Final Gifts: Understanding the Special
Awareness Needs and Communication of the Dying” and
author of “Final Journeys: A Practical Guide to Care
and Comfort at the End of Life.”
