Show Notes

Join us as we relive our year long journey of traveling to Ruleville, Mississippi; Richmond, Virginia and Los Angeles, California to co-create workshops to learn from patients who are living with cancer and other chronic diseases, their caregivers, and some providers to understand what shared decision making means to them. Along this journey we learned history, made connections with people, and gained an understanding of what matters to patients and how they make decisions about important issues related to their health and lives. This work is a part of National Patient Advocate Foundation's Shared Decision-Making at Critical Points in a Long Illness Journey, a project made possible in part by support from the Danaher Foundation.
