Since June's theme is Post Life I wanted to run a previously recorded episode discussing Hospice Care. Join me Jenny D as I delve into the often misunderstood world of hospice care with bereavement coordinator Rebecca from Allegheny Health Network. In this heartfelt episode, we unpack the true essence of hospice, exploring its roots and importance in providing quality of life rather than focusing solely on the end of life. Listeners will discover how hospice is not about surrendering but shifting the focus of care, and learn about the vast support system that exists to help both patients and their families during challenging times. From the role of volunteers to post-passing bereavement support, they discuss the comprehensive nature of hospice care, highlighting stories of resilience and compassion. Whether you're curious about hospice for a loved one or interested in volunteer opportunities, this episode sheds light on how hospice services are a pivotal part of healthcare, ensuring dignity and comfort in the latter stages of life.

Gabriel Most LCSW, RN has always been interested in how our minds work and what motivates us. He has worked as an LCSW in Hospital, Hospice, and Outpatient settings for over twenty years with adults, couples, and families. For the last ten years, he has also worked as a Registered nurse (RN) as an adjunct to his Therapeutic practice, incorporating wellness techniques and practices for daily life. He has also taught Mental Health Care to RN students. "As someone who was born outside of the U.S., whose first language was not English, and as a gay person, I suffered from low self-esteem and the challenges of identifying with a marginalized sexual orientation. It was only when I went to college and volunteered as a peer counselor working with those challenged by addiction, depression, grief, and PTSD that I began the journey of being comfortable in my skin. Through my mental health journey, I embarked on the work of finding my voice, feeling relaxed and proud of my own identity, and then advocating for those who also felt marginalized, unseen, or stereotyped. This process also allowed me to fine-tune my skills when it came to questions of self-identity. I took this passion and went to Hunter College School of Social Work to obtain my LCSW and then later my RN at Phillips Beth Israel School of Nursing so that I could help people explore the connections between caring for the mind and body as a partnership to ensure maximum success and life balance."

This week on Respect Life Radio we are joined by Emmaus Catholic Hospice, a Denver-based organization founded in 2023. Emmaus Catholic Hospice is guided by the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services issued by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These directives emphasize that “patients should be kept as free of pain as possible so that they may die comfortably and with dignity, and in the place where they wish to die.” They also affirm that “suicide and euthanasia are never morally acceptable options.” In alignment with these values, Emmaus Catholic Hospice and its staff do not participate in physician-assisted suicide, including practices referred to as “medical aid in dying” (MAID). Today, their team shares their mission of providing compassionate, faith-based care that honors the dignity of each individual through the sacred journey of end-of-life care. To learn more or to support their mission, please visit emmauscatholichospice.org.

On-call, after hours, 24/7 services - no matter what you call it, hospice care is available to patients and caregivers every hour of every day. Regardless of the day of the week, whether it's a holiday, or the office is closed, a member of the hospice team is accessible all the time. Some hospice agencies have answering services or triage teams, but the final result of a call is connection with a nurse. If another discipline is needed, that's going to be coordinated by the agency. No question or concern is dumb. Hospice agencies offer this service to make sure patients and caregivers feel comfortable in their homes while experiencing the end of a life.  Here are some of the reasons a caregiver or patient might want to contact the hospice team when the office is closed. The patient has had a change in condition, and is showing different symptoms.Your person (the patient) has died. There's a question about medications. A piece of critical equipment isn't working (oxygen, BiPap, electric hospital bed, air mattress or overlay).There are spiritual or faith needs, and the chaplain's (or social worker's) support is needed.  The patient has had a fall and there's an injury.  You can find the Approaching Death Support Kit at bkbooks.com.

Matt Crawford speaks with author Judy Karofsky about her book, DisElderly Conduct: The Flawed Business of Assisted Living and Hospice. The book is a personal account of unmet needs in assisted living and hospice aiming to spark discussions about new approaches for America's aging population and family decision makers. There are 30 thousand assisted living facilities in the US, but most are unaffordable for middleclass Americans and fraught with staffing deficiencies and mismanagement. Chapters on the author's experience helping her mother move from an age-restricted community in Florida to independent living in Wisconsin to assisted living will interest seniors and their family members who know the struggle of finding long term affordable care. The chapter on hospice care distinguishes it from assisted living through the author's experiences and misconceptions, then moves to a broader discussion of Medicare spending, and finally a meditation on dying of old age. The author strikes an effective balance between the personal, political, and cultural aspects of aging. Karofsky dedicates the last chapter of the book to a discussion of recent failures to protect long term care patients during the COVID19 pandemic.

Case management represents the invisible thread that weaves together all aspects of patient care in home health and hospice settings—yet many clinicians receive minimal training in this critical skill. The conversation between Jennifer Kennedy and Kim Skehan dives deep into what effective case management looks like and why it matters so profoundly for both patient outcomes and regulatory compliance. As Kim notes, "Case management is a next level skill" that requires dedicated training and support beyond what most clinicians receive in their professional education. Organizations must invest in developing these capabilities, recognizing that quality case management takes months—not days—to cultivate.Beyond simply making visits, case management involves comprehensive assessment, holistic care planning, and coordination across disciplines to address all patient needs. When done well, it improves patient outcomes, prevents complications, and creates seamless care transitions. When it falters, the consequences can be severe, with many survey findings at the condition level or immediate jeopardy stemming directly from coordination failures. This reality highlights the intersection where compliance meets quality—where doing right by patients simultaneously protects organizations from regulatory challenges.With increasing patient acuity in home-based care, case management has become more complex and demanding. Today's case managers must effectively coordinate multidisciplinary teams, manage high-complexity patients, and ensure comprehensive documentation of all care activities. While technology and AI provide increasingly valuable support tools, the human elements of assessment, coordination, and communication remain irreplaceable. The most successful organizations combine robust training programs with clear processes and adequate time allowances for this vital function.Ready to strengthen your organization's case management practices?

In this episode, we sit down with Pat Labez, a dynamic and multifaceted individual who has embraced life's many transitions, from a young realtor to a passionate advocate for seniors and mental health. Born in the Philippines, raised in Hawaii, and having lived from coast to coast in the U.S., Pat's journey has been anything but conventional, but it's a testament to the power of reinvention and purpose.Pat is the founder of Third Act Encore Publishing and curator of the book Third Act Encore, where I had the honor of contributing a chapter. This book is a creative celebration of the later years in life, offering inspiration and empowerment for seniors.

What happens when artificial intelligence meets end-of-life care?  How do we reconcile private equity's profit motives with hospice's mission-driven ethos?  These questions took center stage in this month's roundup of hospice news with host Chris Comeaux and guest Cordt Kassner.The May edition of TCNtalks' top news stories reveals a healthcare sector at a fascinating crossroads.  AI has emerged as both a tantalizing promise and a practical challenge for hospice providers.  As Chris notes, "We live in a time where people use sensationalized language for everything," yet the revolutionary potential of AI in healthcare deserves the hype. Meanwhile, some hospices struggle with basic internet connectivity, creating what Chris calls a "weird dichotomy" reminiscent of the 1920s when modern conveniences existed alongside homes without electricity.In this episode of TCN Talks, hosts Chris Comeaux and Cord Kastner reflect on Memorial Day and discuss significant news stories from May, including the complexities of thanking veterans for their service, the role of artificial intelligence in hospice care, and the importance of honest conversations about racism in healthcare.They also explore the leadership skills necessary for healthcare CEOs, the challenges of dementia care, and the implications of private equity in the healthcare sector.  Chris also introduces a new initiative called Brain Bookmarks, which aims to provide quick leadership insights.  Join us.Guest: Cordt Kassner,  PhD, Publisher of Hospice & Palliative Care Today & CEO and Founder of Hospice AnalyticsHost:Chris Comeaux, President & CEO of Teleioshttps://www.teleioscn.org/tcntalkspodcast/storm-clouds-on-the-horizon-for-reimbursement-top-news-stories-may-2025Teleios Collaborative Network / https://www.teleioscn.org/tcntalkspodcast

Hospice doctor, podcaster, and author Jordan Grumet joins us to explore why the traditional idea of “finding your purpose” might actually be making us miserable. Drawing from his work with patients at the end of life, Jordan challenges the pressure to chase big, lofty goals—or what he calls “big P” Purpose—and instead invites us to embrace “little p” purposes: the simple, joyful activities that ground us and connect us to others. From childhood passions to quiet regrets, Jordan shares practical ways to identify what truly lights you up and how to build a life that feels meaningful—without overhauling everything.

Have any of you watched the movie “The Notebook”?  At the end, one of the characters, who has dementia, experiences an episode of lucidity.  When I watched it, between tears (I'm a complete softie) I remember thinking, “Oh no! This will give people false hope!  That their loved one is ‘in there.' If only they could find the right key to unlock the lock and let them out.” Today we talk about lucid episodes and what they might mean to the person with dementia, their family and loved ones, to philosophers, to clinicians, to neuroscientists. Our guests are Andrea Gilmore-Bykovskyi, a nurse researcher, and Andrew Peterson, a philosopher. We had a wide ranging discussion that touched on (among many things): A consensus definition developed at an NIH conference, organized by the recently retired NIA program officer Basil Eldadah (we will miss you Basil!). Andrew complicates this definition, stating is raises more questions than answers. Hospice nurses know that terminal lucidity “is a thing” and have pretty much all  seen it Family and caregiver stories of lucid episodes and what they meant to them, including early glimpses into a study Andrea is doing using video to capture episodes and show them to family. Potential for experiences to elicit “false hope”, misunderstanding/misinterpreting, and changing say code status from DNR to full code (rare but happens). Sam Parnia's work on brain activity during CPR and near death episodes Ethical issues these lucid episodes raise  Should clinicians treat people with dementia as always lucid? Having some level of awareness?  Parallels between how we treat people with advanced dementia, who may or may not be lucid, and how we treat AI, who may or may not be conscious, or experiencing paradoxical lucidity on their way to full consciousness.  I try to say please and thank you to the AI I interact with other than Alexa, who is obviously way behind. The Age of Aging podcast episode on lucidity, featuring Anne Bastings, Jason Karlawish, Elizabeth Donnarumma, and Justin Clapp Was Andrew's song choice, “I can see clearly now” better than Eric's suggestion “Silent Lucidity” by Queensryche?   Enjoy! -Alex Smith

In this episode of the Anxiety Chicks podcast, hosts Alison Seponara and Taylor interview Julie McFadden, a hospice nurse and author, who shares her insights on death, dying, and the importance of discussing these topics openly. Julie discusses her transition from ICU nursing to hospice care, the emotional responses people have to death, and the significance of understanding mortality to live more fully.
