NASEM Roundtable on Quality Care for People with Serious Illness: Webinar Series on Palliative Care

NASEM WEBINAR SERIES 1

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) Roundtable on Quality Care for People with Serious Illness is hosting a series on palliative care. The first webinar in the series on May 20 will discuss public perceptions of palliative care.

  1. May 20 webinar: "Addressing Public Misperceptions About Palliative Care." Evidence shows that earlier access to palliative care improves patient and family outcomes, yet misperceptions serve as barriers to access to palliative care earlier in the course of serious illness. Speakers include:
    • Anthony Back, MD, University of Washington
    • Marian Grant, DNP, Coalition to Transform Advanced Care
    • Diane Meier, MD, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
  2. May 30 webinar: "Evidence-based Practices for Changing Public Perceptions about Palliative Care." Speakers will focus on translating research evidence into practice for reaching the public and building public interest in palliative care.
  3. June 13 webinar: "Case Studies: Applying the Research to Change Public Perceptions about Palliative Care." Speakers will provide examples of how evidence-based principles have been applied to change public outreach about palliative care.
