Frailty and Dementia: Essential Conversations with Families
Hosted by the BC Centre for Palliative Care, this ongoing series explores best practices for integrating essential conversations into routine clinical practice.
The next session, “Frailty and Dementia: Essential Conversations with Families,” happening on April 17, from 12–1:00 p.m. PT, will focus on guiding realistic, compassionate discussions with families about medical conditions, quality of life, and goals of care.
Dr. Trevor Janz will model these conversations with families for us; about MOST status, CPR and ICU, feeding tubes in stroke and late dementia, falls and hip fractures, pneumonia, dehydration and bladder infections, and avoiding hospitalization.
