SUMMARY:Palliative Pupus May 2023
DESCRIPTION:We’d like to invite you to our virtual only Palliative Pupus in May\n\n\n\nPalliative Pupus is a unique opportunity to hear about a palliative care case. It is good for palliative care practitioners to learn and increase skills. It is also an excellent opportunity to learn about what palliative care really is and what our amazing colleagues actually do. Cases usually involve a range of practitioners including doctor\, nurse\, chaplain and social workers and cover physical\, emotion and spiritual issues. \n\n\n\nWe are constantly impressed by how our colleagues go the extra mile to care for patients and families so please come to learn and invite colleagues. Especially as we are building the capacity to provide palliative care across the state\, this is an excellent opportunity. \n\n\n\nThis month: Join us for a discussion about a young patient who benefited from home-based and inpatient palliative care as she initially beat the odds with cutting edge oncologic therapy prior to fulfilling her end-of-life wishes. \n\n\n\nWe will continue to meet virtually on zoom in 2024. In addition we meet every second month in person at the QCC and offer a hybrid zoom format. To include neighbor islands we will remain on zoom in a hybrid format. \n\n\n\nThe topic and zoom registration link will be announced in our 2024 newsletter prior to the meeting.

It is not a legal document\, so no witnesses or notary is needed.  But for people who don’t have an advance care directive\, this quick form could be the next best thing.  \n\n\n\n“The trusted decision maker form ‘is a good-faith effort to elicit and record people’s choices for who speaks for them and their general preferences for care\,’ Dr. Ira Byock\, founder and chief medical officer of the Institute for Human Caring\, said. ‘The best practice is for all adult patients to have an advance directive on file\, but when that’s not possi \n\n\n\nPlease join us for our Virtual Monthly Meeting on zoom\, to learn\, laugh\, mingle and network.
