We used all of our political capital to make sure it happens in Chicago, which is where we started for the literature Updates back in 2016, back when it was just me and Ken, and then we brought in Alex, like two years later.

Most emergency providers wanted to do the right thing for seriously ill patients, but they didnt have the knowledge, skills, or experience to do it. I think back in what, May 2016, you published a randomized controlled trial, first author, palliative care and the ED randomized study, cancer patients. And you improved quality of life.

Eric: If I remember your article correctly, there was maybe some better things with for-profits, like more community engagement with low-income communities and more engagement with minority communities.

Kate: The problem is we communicate late, we share prognosis late, we elicit goals and values late, so all the time while they’re in the ICU getting prolonged intensive care, we don’t really know that we’re providing goal concordant care, so we wanted to nudge it a little upstream. Eric: Nudge it. Kate: Nudge it.

But at that time I was struck by how in that field, there wasn’t a focus or really interest in symptom management and support for patients and their families. So at least in my oncology community, I really didn’t have anyone guiding or supporting or mentoring me. Areej: I think it was 2016. Eric: 2016.

And which of those experiences would you like to share with us that we could then write into a story that we’ll share with providers? It started here at Madison at one and it’s also spread outside the VA now to hospitals in Boston, Providence and now starting up actually in California and UCLA and UCSF. Heather: Yeah.

Should she be treated non-operatively, with aggressive symptom management? And we found out in our work that something like 70 or 80% of patients with dementia who have surgery come from the community, who are coming from home. What does it mean for functional status, symptom management, location of care?

This week we’ve invited three guests to share their stories about storytelling that’s written for healthcare providers. As I was cleaning up my office, I found something I’d written in 2016.

Don’t get me wrong, the evidence points to cost savings, but as Chris Callahan and Kathleen Unroe pointed out in a JAGS editorial in 2020 “in comprehensive dementia care models, savings may accrue to Medicare, but the expenses accrue to a fluid and unstable network of local service providers, patients, and their families.” 2015, 2016.
