Boundaries, Documentation & Reporting brings the hospice course together around the professional standards that protect patients, families, and team members. The intimacy of end-of-life work makes boundaries especially important, accurate documentation keeps the team coordinated and the care accountable, and reporting duties protect vulnerable patients from harm. This course covers professional boundaries in hospice, gifts and confidentiality, the boundary between support and overstepping, documentation and its importance, objective record-keeping, confidentiality and HIPAA, mandated reporting of vulnerable adult maltreatment, and self-care and sustaining yourself in this work. It ties together the rights, communication, and grief content of the course. The throughline: hospice work is intimate and emotional, which makes professional standards essential. Clear boundaries, honest documentation, and faithful reporting protect patients and families — and protect and sustain you.
