Palliative Care

Adults 50+ Overwhelmingly Want Palliative Care, Once They Know What It Is

"The John A. Hartford Foundation (JAHF) asked adults 50+ in America their views on planning and care for serious illness and what matters to them. While unfamiliar with palliative care and advance care planning, when these terms are explained, people overwhelmingly want access to both. Most adults also trust that what matters to them will be respected by the health care system, even though conversations about their wishes aren’t occurring."
