Description

“The idea of early palliative care was really a prevention strategy for preventing people from going through unnecessary and unwanted suffering, treatments, and things that were not consistent with their values and preferences. . . . For people who have a serious illness, it’s not good to wait until you’re facing these very critical decisions. You need to plan up-front,” ONS member Marie Bakitas, DNS, APRN, FAAN, AOCN®, professor and associate dean for research and scholarship at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BC, AOCNS®, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about implementing palliative and supportive care for patients with cancer.
