Consider the Conversation Community Screening

Add to Calendar

Jun 5,2013 - Time: 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm
\"Consider the Conversation is a remarkable, thought-provoking film that looks at many of the issues that we will all face at the end-of-life. It opens the floodgates of thought and conversation on this most difficult and often taboo subject. It helps to illustrate many areas of improvement in our health care system. I would encourage everyone to watch this important film including physicians, healthcare workers, patients and families. This film will help us to be better physicians, better nurses, better patients and better people.\" -James Roberts, M.D., Medical Director, Mayo Clinic Health System-Home Health & Hospice This film examines multiple perspectives on end-of-life care and includes information and experiences gathered from interviews with patients, family members, doctors, nurses, clergy, social workers and national experts from around the country. This event includes a wine and cheese reception at 5:30, screening at 6:00 and a panel discussion at 7:00 with representatives from Horizon Home Care & Hospice including Kira Testin, RN and Katie Tiefenthaler, CAPSW and Kelly Andrew, Director of Development.
