But then once it was open, started seeing a lot of other populations: not just our own hospital population, but a lot more just community members calling with concerns about driving. If they’re in a major car crash, they’re going to have more long-term complications probably than a 20-year-old would. Eric: Yeah. Alex: Yeah.

Second, as we discussed in last week’s podcast , older adults, particularly those in nursing homes, were far more likely to die than younger individuals. We lump everybody who’s 65 and older together, and then we don’t look at the individual characteristics of that person, so we fall into these patterns based on racial premises.

So at least in my oncology community, I really didn’t have anyone guiding or supporting or mentoring me. But the palliative care clinicians didn’t have the time or opportunity to foster and develop a longitudinal relationship with patients and their families.
