Hosted by integrative palliative medicine physician, Dr. Delia Chiaramonte, The Integrative Palliative Podcast helps physicians and clinicians guide families facing serious illness to physical and emotional wellbeing.

Everyone who cares for seriously ill people will find something for themselves and their patients in this podcast. It is targeted not only to those who practice palliative care, but also to physicians and clinicians in oncology, radiation oncology, neurology, geriatrics, rheumatology, hospital medicine, intensive care, and more.
While the podcast is targeted to those who care for patients and clients, family caregivers will find many pearls to help them care for their ill or aging and loved one, while also caring for themself. All are welcome!

How to Handle it When Your Patient is Crying
Many clinicians, especially physicians, don't learn in school what to do when a patient is crying. When we don't know what to do we feel uncomfortable, and no one likes to feel uncomfortable.
I've seen many physicians sit in the presence of a crying patient, continue to work on their computer, or awkwardly shift in their seat. This gives the patient the message that their tears and feelings aren't welcome.
This week we talk about what to do when your patient starts crying.
I'm glad you're here,
Delia
