Oprah Daily Says Palliative Care is the Health Care Model We All Deserve
An Oprah Daily article illustrates how palliative care is the type of medical care that all patients deserve. Through interviews with palliative care leaders, including CAPC's Diane E. Meier, MD, the article covers all of the benefits of palliative care, from improving a patient's quality of life and supporting them and their families throughout their illness, to the person-centered approach and human connection that is often missing from standard medicine, and much more. The article also discusses how other specialties can come closer to palliative care's approach through communication skills for all health care professionals, and more.
