And then from that, through community activists, ACT UP, legislators who felt that there needed to be something done, doctors within CDCR who cared passionately about the HIV population and others, all came together and we were able to eventually get funding for this 17-bed inpatient hospice. It’s by choice, just like in the community.

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 ). . Eric: Well, let me push you on that.

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 ). That’s a lot of information [inaudible 00:35:43], but I share some of that. Where are my colleagues?”

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. So that’s the other part. That’s the other piece of data on top of our focus group anecdotes.

So we looked at hospital referral regions, and we looked at high- and low- intensity regions. Ruth: Decision-making processes, we saw the lower nursing homes tended to have a clear process for advanced care planning and for decision making to include families in an informed decision.

Alex: We’ve got a lot to talk about…what states are doing and cities are doing to support older adults in the community. I’ve been on a quest to build those services and support so that people can make true, informed decisions for themselves and their families. But, what you need is a community-based game there.

And now when I think about the clinic at Duke, when we’re really running on all cylinders, we can get ourselves up to a five, six, seven week wait for a new palliative care referral. And the entire community of palliative care said yes, not a palliative care study. We won’t kill your patient. I’m so sorry.

The reason I chose this song is because I’m currently working on bringing advanced care planning sessions to the Latino community. In our planning sessions, one of the biggest barriers to advanced care planning in this community is just talking about death. It was information about our ACP facilitator. So 6% difference.

So cancer.net has information on this. I mean, there are many professional societies that all have patient facing resources now with a lot of information around, I would say, sexual health and chronic illness. I think there’s a lot more good, high quality information available to folks, and. I have as well.

And I think that it was percolating in a lot of the palliative care community. And how are you going to know that when you’re just getting random referrals from teaching hospitals, for example? So it developed all this issue around what is a qualifying referral that would allow me to do telehealth prescribing?
