Here’s one, a senior resident presented a patient morning report and the physical exam said the patient had a scar in the groin. Wonderful work. Every Veteran has a story.
As you mentioned, it was published in JAGS in 2020, and we really started from the time of inception of POLST, so in the early 1990s, up until about February 2020 was the date that we cut off.
