5 Questions to Ask About End of Life Care and More in this Powerful Session
|
|
|
|
As Atul Gawande, MD, admits in his book Being Mortal, mortality wasn't something he learned about in medical school.
It was learned through his father's incurable brain cancer diagnosis, through patients kept alive through machines and medicines that offer no quality of life, and through conversations with patients to learn what they wanted.
He's learned a lot, and so will you when you attend AHIP's Institute & Expo. Dr. Gawande will walk you through how to think about end of life care. He'll share the five questions that will help patients and doctors work together to improve care and comfort. He'll help you start the conversations at your organization. You'll leave inspired.
You'll be glad to be part of this discussion June 20 -22 in San Diego.
