Hi Team,

I am working in a Humanitarian Medical Organization as a patient support supervisor in Tuberculosis sector. I can totally relate this session with our daily work when we see some people living with disease at their last stage and how family response to this situation.

This session was really good and informative. Dr. Winnie Teuteberg nicely explained what is Palliative Care and Hospice. Types of palliative care, the organogram and the difference between Palliative and Hospice care. The significance of Palliative Care in the current times and how we need to treat people living with disease.

Thank you Stanford Health Care Department.

All the best

It is a general opportunity to understand hospice benefit criteria. Helps with the generalities of the training of a palliative care provider.
