I chat with Dr En'en Tong, a geriatrician with an interest in palliative care about how we might talk with our patients about the their goals of care when it comes to having surgery.

She shares with us the REMAP framework and recommends the Vital Talk website:

Keen to improve your communication with patients and colleagues?
