Medicine focuses a lot on the question “will this help my patient” but not on the question “when will it help my patient.” The latter becomes important as we age. We’ve developed a “time-to-benefit” tool on https://t.co/pNX59QfR17 to help answer this question.

Happy 100th Birthday to our 39th US President Jimmy Carter, who after more than a year of home #hospice care has proven what hospice providers have always known -- that hospice is designed for living your best life, for however long that may be! #JimmyCarter100 #JimmyCarter
