Dr. Yael Schenker was senior author on this article about a pharmacist-led deprescribing clinic for cancer patients in remission, which was piloted at UPMC. Read the results in @jpsmjournal.bsky.social:
Pharmacist-led Opioid Deprescribing Pilot Clinic within Outpatient Palliative Care - PubMed
Opioid deprescribing clinic was time-intensive and patients required close monitoring for implementation of patient-specific opioid deprescribing plans.

I first wrote this as a series of voice notes in between home hospice visits during my HPM fellowship last year. I didn’t expect these visits to impact me quite the way they did.

Screenshot of the front of the article in the Journal of Pain and Symptom Management Title - Palliative Care Consults for Clinician Distress: Part of the Job? Yael Schenker, MD, MAS, FAAHPM, William E. Rosa, PhD, MBE, APRN, Robert M. Arnold, MD, FAAHPM Abstract Clinician distress is common in serious illness care. Palliative specialists are often consulted for cases involving significant distress among primary teams. Consults involving clinician distress can be challenging to navigate when it feels like 1) palliative specialists do not have the right skills to be helpful or 2) palliative specialists are being asked to ‘fix’ difficult situations that would require changing other people's attitudes, beliefs, or behaviors, or healthcare systems writ large. This article uses three composite cases to illustrate types of clinician distress and examine the benefits and risks of palliative specialist involvement. We conclude with a discussion of potential impacts of palliative care consults for clinician distress on the field of palliative care and consider next steps in critically important efforts to support and sustain the entire workforce—both palliative specialists and nonspecialists alike—when caring for patients with serious illness and their family caregivers.
