Caring For Those At The End Of Life
The Leonard Lopate Show | Mar 15, 2017
Dr. Jessica Nutik Zitter joins us to talk about her book Extreme Measures: Finding a Better Path to the End of Life. She discusses her career path from wanting to be an ICU physician to becoming a doctor who specializes in palliative care.
She writes about her own realization that the old and the ill are put on what she calls the “End-of-Life Conveyor belt,” and details how she works with patients, families and caregivers.
