Health Care Providers

Nurses, doctors, hospice providers, mental health professionals and social workers are commonly faced with questions about life, death and what comes after. At times, their patients and clients may describe near-death experiences, yet the providers may be unfamiliar with near-death experience research and how to respond to their patients. 

IANDS aims to empower health providers with important resources.

  • Continuing Education Opportunities – We offer a variety of continuing education opportunities at our IANDS Annual Conference and in other education educational events.
