On Death and Dying: Hospice and Palliative Care
 
When a loved one is seriously ill, what kind of resources are available?
Who can you turn to for straight answers and support? What does it mean to have hope even when facing death?
These topics and many more will be addressed in a session led by a hospice and palliative care specialist who welcomes your questions and comments about end-of-life and palliative care.
This event will be held on Zoom. Attendees will receive the Zoom meeting information within 24 hours of the meeting. Registration required.
Cynthia Carney is a founding member of CIAC (Coalition to Improve Advanced Care) and the executive director of Goodwin House Palliative Care and Hospice. She is an RN and has been working in hospice for 20 years.
