Ep. 483 ENCORE: The Evolution of Hospice Care – Our First Interview with Barbara Karnes RN


Listen Later

Enjoy this very first conversation with my friend Barbara Karnes as we get to know one another and discuss our hopes for the future of hospice care.

This episode is a replay of my very first interview with Barbara Karnes RN that appeared on the EOLU speaker series but not on the podcast. Barbara is a pioneer in the hospice movement and a world-renowned speaker, author and educator. You’ll hear us getting to know one another and talking about her work at that time, which has expanded and grown over the years. Enjoy our conversation and remember that some links and programs mentioned back then may have changed. For up-to-date resources go to Barbara’s website:
