Description:This podcast is jampacked with content, including a discussion of advance directives for dementia, Voluntary Stopping of Eating and Drinking, and a deep dive into decision making. In this week’s conversation, Chaplain Hank Dunn suggests a framework for thinking things through, including asking:


1) What’s the goal that you are trying to accomplish?

2) What would the patient want, and what does the patient think about their current and probable future condition?

3) What is in the best interest of the patient? and

4) What is the prognosis and probable consequences if a certain treatment plan is followed? Join us for all this good thinking and more!
