How to Start the Conversation: 5 Tips for Initiating Talks About End-of-Life Wishes

Delia Chiaramonte, MD Season 3 Episode 146

Talking about advance directives, goals of care, and end-or-life wishes can be scary. Even if the conversation doesn't scare you, finding the right time and the right way to bring it up can be a challenge.

This week I share my own recent experience of having a goals of care conversation with a loved one, and give practical guidance for how to get started with your own courageous conversations.

Let's talk about it!
