更坦然地面对死亡和临终

去年冬天, 维多利亚Kissell, 海洋保护区的18, was able to add a facet to her education that not many PAs are able to claim. “We don’t learn how to deal with death in school,” she says. “因为我们专注于让人们变得更好, 我们倾向于把它推到一边, 尽管这是不可避免的. 通过 Jewish 健康care Foundation’s Fellowship in Death and Dying, I was able to talk to people who handle it every day, so that if I do have a patient who is terminally ill, 我更愿意谈论它.”

向人群挥手致意, Nola the Nurse® reaches the front of the church, 并开始与她的创造者共舞, Dr. Scharmaine Lawson-Baker, 2008年注册会计师. 他们摇摆,碰撞臀部,鼓掌. 很快音乐安静下来,孩子们也安静下来, 这很好, because Nola and Baker are up from New Orleans to do some educating.
