Listen "What Kind of Care Do You Want? with Guest Sharon Iversen"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I talk with Sharon Iversen, a nurse with over 45 years of healthcare experience, about Goals of Care (GOC) and Advanced Care Planning. We give concrete examples of why having these important documents and conversations will empower you and your family in stressful healthcare situations.
We also chat about the difference between Hospice/End of Life and Palliative Care, where this type of care is delivered and why more people (health care professionals included) need to recognize the differences between the two.
