I talked about lack of prestige and respect, and I talked about how healthcare system leaders and medical school deans don’t always seem to value the field of geriatrics. But then I realized who I wasn’t hearing from, I did not hear from the CEO of my organization, my healthcare organization. One was very surprising.

But to come back to just nursing homes, when you think about what a nursing home is and the range of people that they take care of, you can see why it’s so tricky to think about how do we get the right services in there. Do they need a palliative care doctor, nurse practitioner? Like, what does that part look like?

So Tammie developed something called EPIC for Emergency medicine, which is a curriculum that was one of the first ways that I think palliative care got spread in our community. We adapted a small group of us, Vital Talk for emergency medicine, which is communication skills training using simulation. And so we use that. No difference.

I chose, not healthcare management, which a lot of my colleagues have done, but I actually chose negotiation and dispute resolution, which I thought was fun, as well as marketing. That’s something that I figured we could definitely go after is using those negotiation skills and then moving them over towards the healthcare setting.

Why do we need to do more?
