Palliative Care, and Why You Need to Know About It: Dr. Diane Meier and Rabbi Dr. Edith Meyerson
Palliative care is growing as a movement to maximize quality of life for those with serious illness. Yet to many, the concept and reality of palliative care is unclear or unknown. Dr. Diane Meier — Founder and Director Emerita of the Center to Advance Palliative Care (CAPC) — and Rabbi Dr. Edith Meyerson — Director of Pastoral Counseling and Bereavement Services at the Hertzberg Palliative Care Institute at Mt Sinai Hospital in NYC — join Exit Strategy Host Stephanie Garry to demystify palliative care and explain its place on the healthcare and end-of-life spectrums.
