Exploring Innovative Tools to Enhance Supportive Care Decision Making at End-of-Life WORKSHOP

Join us for an interactive workshop introducing five creative toolkits designed to support end-of-life communication, decision-making, and reflection. Through small group activities, including gameplay and roleplay, participants will explore how these tools can facilitate compassionate conversations and improve care experiences for patients, families, and caregivers.
Paper presentation:
What is Time at the End-of-Life?Reflections from a Public Interactive Installation
This paper presentation shares insights from Time Moving, a participatory installation that invites public reflection on how we perceive time near the end of life. Drawing from participant interactions, the presentation explores how temporal awareness shifts with changing priorities, capacities, and contexts. This work highlights the role of design in fostering meaningful dialogue around end-of-life communication and decision-making.
