Dying Right

This week Christine is joined by Anna, a hospice nurse practitioner who explains the role of hospice in end of life care and what made her choose this rewarding specialty after years of critical care medicine as nurse in a busy urban Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Christine shares her own personal story of a family member receiving hospice care after a diagnosis of cancer.
