Brenda Arend: The main thing I’d want you to take away is the shift in focus from “rehab” to “palliative” goals of care. It is there that we have the freedom to use what we know with our patients—but not feel we have to rehab them—and we can focus on quality of life and involve the team (family, patient, doctor, etc.).

Kate Krival: Mine would be that we manage our patients best by applying terrific evaluations and considering their wishes and the evidence... That our palliative patients deserve the same attention to careful diagnosis and treatment possibilities as our rehab patients.
