I’ve yet to gain the skill of avoiding tears when discussing the transition to comfort care with patient’s families and loved ones. I hope I never do.

@sparklyscalpel Yep- Same. Especially in these moments- i want to show up completely for these families rather than maximally compartmentalize for my own comfort.

@sparklyscalpel We very much appreciate the term ‘comfort care’ and we’ll begin using it in our #meded conferences.
