I am constantly talking to clinical social workers about what are the ways that you can be contributing to research, to publications, to scholarship, to presentations, even if it’s a reflection paper?

And so in that way, it’s not the letterhead or the four walls and the roof that are perpetuating the present, it’s the people. That, as you were saying, Eric, that bring me joy that I can pursue because they feed me, as well as whatever the reward system that I’m in. We should be writing. We should be doing this.

And for a few reasons, which I’m sure we’ll get into, I think it’s probably most effective upstream of the acute care setting, more in the nursing home setting or for patients who are not presenting in the hospital or emergency department setting. But yeah, full treatment.

I felt like I was always told to present people with a buffet of options and, really, without guidance, ask them to choose, which is, it would always make me feel sick to my stomach. Alex: A feeding tube. And I described a code that I led as a senior resident. We’re giving some biologic information if they want it.

But one of the things that I try to teach, because both Juliet and I have done a ton of teaching about this, is that if you follow these steps, that outcome sort of presents itself.

Areej 03:50 So at the state of the science, I was actually presenting a study that was focused on addressing sexual health concerns in transplant survivors, and I actually told the story of the state of the science for those of you who were there.

Butstay with us heremight AI help to address some of the major issues present in surrogate decision making?
