Hey #HaPCchat…#Hospice #HaPC #Palliative

Anyone able to share novel ways to engage, celebrate, and honor NOVEMBER as NATIONAL HOSPICE & PALLIATIVE CARE MONTH??????? #HaPCchat

HOT OFF THE PRESSES! Patients overwhelmingly prefer immediate access to their test results - even if that means getting bad news! Major props to Liz Salmi and team for putting this great research together. To my health care peeps: this is a GOOD thing! And an opportunity...

Here is the moment when Dr. G held her own book and demonstrated its portability 💜 Mourning Dove Medical inaugural publication in paperback❕ “Dr. G’s H.O.S.P.I.C.E. Pocket Guide: 7 Things Hospice Physicians Need to Know to be Ready for Work” by Dr. Kaishauna Guidry, MD, HMDC #hapc

At the bedside of a dying person… Family: doc, do you think he hears me? Me: likely yes😲👇🔗 Fascinating study 🔗👇showing that “hearing may indeed be one of the last senses to lose function as humans die.” The auditory systems of the dying persons just hours from end of life

Since 2021, Medicare has been testing a pilot project (aka Medicare Carve-In) allowing some #hospice care to be administered by private insurance companies. Some of the goals are more flexible cost control and expanded acess. Must read for #hapc npr.org/sections/healt…

1 thing I've learned: be honest with pts w/serious illness, but meet them where they are, not where you think they should be. #palliative
