For those with #seriousillness, sleep problems and #insomnia are all too common. Instead of jumping to melatonin or ambien, we talk with two sleep experts, Cathy Alessi and @SleepinBeautyMD, about a better approach.

Oh you’re going to a teaching hospital in July? Well get ready…

for the most compassionate care from extremely empathetic interns along with their vigilant supervising attendings. Hope you like open ended questions and doctors listening to you bc you’re gonna drown in it.

@GraniteDoc And don’t get me started on the misconception that you can’t qualify for GIP hospice without a drip!!! Arrrggghh!!

[Ross the Hospice Doc @RossAlbertMD]

@GraniteDoc And to be super clear- not throwing shade at MDs or nurses— these fears are real and they’re all centered on the good of the patient and having what they feel they need as EOL process progresses #hapc

@kevalbert Can you add like a 30 second ‘future me comments on past me’ edit at the beginning? Could be fun??

Thought provoking article by @IraByock about the commercialization of hospice in US. 👏🏻 Change means bravely facing reality and truth. Response to the ProPublica piece. Hospice care needs saving https://t.co/52yMV8E6gN via @statnews

@kevalbert It’s like that phrase, ‘when god closes a door…’; except here… it’s more like… when Kev snaps the rake… ummm, it’s time for whiskey and football?

[Ross the Hospice Doc @RossAlbertMD]

Amen! The palliative care community has been so amazing on here and I’ll miss that for sure if this place vanishes! That, and the intermittent heckling to and from my brother… @kevalbert

Reboot the way you and your organization talk to the public about care for serious illness.
Based on a decade of research into what the public really thinks.
Hint: Advance care planning ≠ Palliative care ≠ Hospice

@kevalbert Kev where are your legs??!!

[Ross the Hospice Doc @RossAlbertMD]

@LGlaucomflecken @Annecallanan5 @DGlaucomflecken @GeriPalBlog @anthony_back The humbling thing here is that we have Amazing organizations like @CAPCpalliative & @AAHPM with passionate advocates, but the messaging just hasn’t moved the needle-so they created this free, evidence-based content for others to ‘steal’! Such a cool idea. https://t.co/xyiPWDWxyI

[Ross the Hospice Doc @RossAlbertMD]

@LGlaucomflecken @Annecallanan5 @DGlaucomflecken Thanks for asking about this! There was a great @GeriPalBlog podcast on this with @anthony_back & Marian Grant about the messaging problem that palliative care has always faced, and how we might do better! https://t.co/RpPMOQLDqR

I followed @DocSirop footsteps and finally got a Fast Facts published (and first publication)! I'm very grateful to @CAbousaab, Dr. Sean Marks, and the embedded @UTSWENT & @UTSWPalliative clinic that made this happen! #MedTwitter #hapc #PalliativeCare
