I practice family and sports medicine as part of the Southern California Permanente Medical Group here in Fontana, California. WM: Like you, I’m a family physician.

Often the work of the certified driving rehab specialist is to assess the older drivers goals, assess prognosis for driving, and help the family navigate discussions around driving cessation (hmmm…sounds like an approach to family meetings). Were those people self referring, or family members calling you asking? Eric: Yeah.

Widera and Smith have no relationships to disclose. Guest Laurie Dornbrand has no relationships to disclose. If they didn’t do it all by themselves, they talked to the family and it was a conversation, but also there wasn’t a whole lot that doctors can do then. ICU care was pretty rudimentary.

And I think a big part of that journey was just having that right time, that right moment, with the right network and support groups of individuals, including my family, to really lift me up and allow me to celebrate my authentic self.

This is my early father’s day gift from the family. But at that time I was struck by how in that field, there wasn’t a focus or really interest in symptom management and support for patients and their families.

So my family is from Maui and were impacted by the wildfires, so I really appreciate this. Alex: How is your family doing? My family’s also from Maui.

So I think as palliative care clinicians, we use narrative as we try to understand more about the persons that we’re caring for and their families. Been in the hospital four times, vented, been told the story to her family, she won’t live. And so I really gain that and I love the chorus words that she uses in this song.

Jasmine: It’s an imaginative love story that deconstructs age through an intergenerational friend relationship. As somebody who works in a nursing home, I can barely read a nursing home note anymore because if it’s on electronic medical record, it’s usually a bunch of check boxes, several pages.

That’s why we use the terms assessment and intervention and we think of assessment as a skill of a very advanced skill that chaplains have of doing an in-depth evaluation of a patient or family member, and then the interventions should certainly follow naturally from that.
