D-2F Care and Treatment of Incarcerated Individuals at the End of Life: Medical and Administrative Implications ( Y CE, CE, CME) Track: Medical Room 203-A As the carceral population ages, and the comorbidities and disease burdens on individuals increase, correctional settings are more and more often tasked with ensuring appropriate end-of-life care. Administrators, site medical providers and healthcare professionals endeavor to prevent or relieve suffering as much as possible while preserving and respecting the patient’s wishes. Navigating the complicated medico/administrative implications of this landscape can be confusing.

Learning Objectives: • Participants will be able to describe two common barriers to engaging incarcerated patients in end-of-life conversations. • Participants will be able to identify two likely “end-of-life” questions posed to Administrators and consider how your Agency will respond. • Participants will be able to identify at least three decisions that should be discussed with the patient regarding end-of-life decisions.
