What People with Serious Illness Want - Part 1
Season 1
Episode 13
Published 5 years, 9 months ago
Description
This is the first of a two-part series discussing the research regarding what people with serious illness want, particularly at the end of their lives.
This episode discusses:
- Wanting to live without pain
- Wanting to make decisions about our care
Goals of care are very individualized, and treatment should encompass psycho-social, physical and spiritual needs or desires. We talk about how it is important for everyone involved to communicate - from the nurse and provider to the patient and the patient's family.
