  • How to Separate the Myths From the Truth About Hospice Care
    Feb 14 2025
    My guest Gabby Jimenez and I are busting the hospice myths to get to the truth about end of life care. Because there are so many misconceptions about hospice care, many people don’t choose to have care from a hospice team or they delay hospice care until very close to death. It’s important to know the truth about all the aspects of hospice care - how medicines are managed, how morphine is really used for someone who’s dying, when to start hospice, and Do Not Resuscitate orders work. Gabby Jimenez is a hospice nurse, end-of-life doula, death and dying educator, and author. Her website and Facebook page, which are both named The Hospice Heart, offer support for people who are either terminally ill, or caring for someone who is nearing the end of their life. Gabby has learned from being at the bedside of about 2,000 people who have taken their last breath. Her end-of-life doula training has helped her to truly understand the sacredness of death and dying, and what it means to be present for someone during that intimate and final moment.

  • Mideo is a Breakthrough Method to Digitize Your Advance Care Plan
    Feb 7 2025

    Dr. Fred Mirarchi is working to create personalized, specific advance care plans for patients, accommodating every stage of life and end of life wish. After seeing clinicians in the hospital struggle to determine exactly what patients’ wishes were, Fred realized documentation of advance directives didn’t truly communicate clearly. He and the team at Mideo Health have developed a best-practice model for documenting health care directives.

    Using a video format allows patients to customize their plan. For older adults who might struggle with technology, the team provides concierge service to guide them through every step of the process. There’s space available on the Mideo platform for creating a personal message to family members, and to document disease-specific directives based on the person’s health history. When completed, Mideo is accessible by QR code so it can be accessed quickly by first responders and hospital staff. If you’re younger and in good health, there’s a “do-it-yourself” version of Mideo that’s easy to complete on your own.

    Advance care planning is a great way of preventing unwanted care that’s out of alignment with personal beliefs and wishes. The best time to start the ACP conversation is now.
