Michael’s Hospital in the Department of Family and Community Medicine. And this is really traumatic event for his street family and the street community that he knew. 80% died exactly where they wanted to and 83% were reconnected to family or friends through a psychosocial support system that we put into place. Yeah, yeah.

Through a series of events, I started working as a consultant to the Department of Corrections in around 2006, and I was assigned to the California Medical Facility.

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. If they get palliative care consult, they get one. It’s not just about physical symptom management. We won’t kill your patient.

We see our patients and our families throughout the illness trajectory into the hospital. It’s hard for your family to know.
