I'm well aware there's been some unfortunate press about "death panels" related to health reform proposals. Sigh. One of the most timely business plans my students submitted this summer was to train hospital staff nurses on principles of palliative care, to improve their assessment and care planning skills in this important area. With Baby Boomers starting to turn 65 in 2011, isn't it time we started thinking about financial and quality of care implications of end-of-life conditions?
I would welcome thoughts about this issue.
