Palliative Care in Chronic Disease
Join our host Laura Bates as she takes part in an in-depth conversation with Nancy Good-Kennedy and Cathy McKeown, both Palliative Pain and Symptom Management Consultants, about Palliative Care and Chronic Diseases.
| | |
As palliative care providers, we connect daily with patients and families that experience loss daily. Loss of physical function, loss of independence, and relationships can become distant. The grieving process has begun. The pleasure in this journey for the provider is we are given the tools to empower our patients and help them reframe their hope. These times allow us to honour them by discussing what is most important to them and how these goals can be achieved. Sharing the truth of things we cannot change and elating and optimizing symptom management for things that can, is our way of respecting their goals and values. Hope changes over time, from hoping for a cure to hoping for attendance at a special event to a last visit with a friend. We are partners cherishing a desire with anticipation! | |
