The obstacles hindering referrals to palliative care services. We also take a dive into these 2 articles that Connie first authored: Palliative care in nursing homes: A qualitative study on referral criteria and implications for research and practice. And what does that referral process look like? Connie 19:46 Yeah.

Michele: Yeah, so in May of 2018, there was an article by Suleika Jaouad in the New York Times Magazine, and they spent about two weeks in our hospice with us learning about the work that’s done. And so the article focuses on the work of these three men who were mostly gang involved and did something really bad when they were young.

So I get all the referrals from my great colleagues in primary care. We’ve had difficulty in recruiting and engaging in those communities, and that’s on our end. It’s not on the community’s end. So it matters a lot to the person, to their family, to the community. Alex 26:33 Yeah. Nate 26:36 Right.

As a springboard for this conversation we discuss new prognostic models developed to predict (simultaneously) mortality, disability, and mobility impairment ( Alex Lee first author, JAGS ) and mortality for people with dementia residing in the community ( James Deardorff first author, JAMA IM ). . I think mortality is the final end path.

Even with this whole discussion about diversity, even in our regular community, we are not actually making progress when you look at nationally weighted surveys. Look at the way they talk to the public, referral like HIV prep. There was an article that came out about cancer center advertising. So that’s the other part.

We are also joined by LaVera Crawly, a physician turned chaplain, now VP of Spiritual Care at Common Spirit Health (and author of another of my favorite and most cited papers on palliative care in the African American Community ). I wonder if you could tell that story for our listeners. George Soros had the project on Death in America.

You know your patients’ evolving story as well as their family, friends, coworkers, and the peculiarities of their local community. Adherence to medical advice improves and unnecessary self-referrals to other doctors decrease. Over time, communication improves. If so, please share this article!

So we looked at hospital referral regions, and we looked at high- and low- intensity regions. And to keep it short work for an article. I was like, how do you disseminate this knowledge out to these community nursing homes in rural Georgia so that people know about this? Ruth: We wanted to control for those regional factors.

So you, Jennifer, probably have, like, the most cited, probably should be the most cited randomized controlled trial of palliative care and lung cancer patients that everybody, every palliative care article I’ve seen, whether or not it works, always includes, it was outpatient palliative care in lung cancer patients. We’re what?

Alex: We’ve got a lot to talk about…what states are doing and cities are doing to support older adults in the community. But, what you need is a community-based game there. The long-term care is being actually provided in the community at a much higher rate than what the formal system provides. You go back home.

Eric 01:07 So we have an amazing lineup of guests and we’re going to be talking about a pragmatic study on advanced care planning, which we’ll have links to in our show, notes for the actual article. In our planning sessions, one of the biggest barriers to advanced care planning in this community is just talking about death.

You wrote the SF Chronicle article on an op-ed. And I think that it was percolating in a lot of the palliative care community. Carly: Absolutely, and I will say we had a really hard time narrowing it down to these three because amongst those of us who wrote that article, we can think of hundreds of people.
