Joe O’Donnell, MD, Senior Advising Dean at Dartmouth, encouraged me to enroll in training as a hospice volunteer when I was a second-year medical student, an invaluable experience at a formative moment. This honor also recognizes the shared vision and values of Hospice and Palliative Medicine and Geriatrics.
