Sad to leave #hapc25 a little early, but hoping to make it home before the snowstorm!
Thanks to all for a wonderful conference learning and connecting. Special thanks to the #aahpm conference planners and amazing staff, and to those who got me back on Bluesky.

Dynamic discussion from Dr. Patrick White and Dr. Debra Oliver on terminal breathing changes and the distress effect on family caregivers. Huge reason for crises, return to ER, and disenrollment from hospice. #hapc25

In palliative care, much of my hospital consult work was educating others on the importance of early consults and the time needed to do them well. These two slides (by Dr. Greer and Dr. Temel) are key in illustrating why: much of the value add requires rapport, and rapport takes time. #hapc25

Congratulations to Dr. Tait Shanafelt for AAHPM Presidential Citation Award.

Clinician Wellbeing is critical in the field of #hapc25 and it’s great to see acknowledgement of his contributions to this field. #wellbeing
