  • Knowledge of:

    • Common prognosis and trajectories of life-limiting conditions.
    • Pain and symptom management needs of palliative care patients
  • Possesses a strong clinical background with a patient-centered approach
  • Knowledge of the health care delivery system and community resources
  • Is a natural motivator, leader and advocate

  • Case management experience or recent related community experience
  • Competent with RAI assessment tools
  • Ability to speak French or another second language
