VitalTalk is a leading training organization that equips clinicians with the necessary skills to effectively communicate with patients living with serious illnesses. Whether through in-person or online courses, VitalTalk offers evidence-based training methodologies using simulated patients in a confidential setting. This allows clinicians to practice their newly acquired communication skills in a safe and supportive environment.

By completing these courses, clinicians and Advanced Practice Providers gain confidence in delivering serious news and discussing goals of care with their patients. As part of the VitalTalk community, clinicians receive ongoing support, including access to train-the-trainer Faculty Development programs, enabling them to integrate better communication skills at their institutions. VitalTalk's vision is to ensure that every seriously ill patient receives care from clinicians who can authentically talk about what matters most to them and align care with their values.

Effective conversations between clinicians, patients, and their families are fundamental to patient-centered care. Unfortunately, many clinicians have not received formal training in this area, leading to inadequate communication skills that impact the entire healthcare system. VitalTalk strives to address this gap by providing comprehensive training and support.

As an equal opportunity employer, VitalTalk is committed to embracing and encouraging diversity among its employees, creating an inclusive and supportive work environment. Visit their website to learn more about their evidence-based communication trainings and how you can support their mission
