Nina Can, RN, BSN and Megan Crowe, LMSW - Rochester Regional Health (RRH) Home Care and Hospice Care

Hearing the word hospice from a healthcare provider can be scary and frightening. This presentation aims to dispel the many myths surrounding hospice and palliative care by exploring these philosophies of care through objective information. Understanding hospice and palliative care before it is needed can prepare participants to make confident healthcare decisions for themselves and their loved ones when the time arises.

Megan Crowe, LMSW, graduated in 2016 the University of Pittsburgh with an MSW. She worked for Elite Home Health and Hospice doing home visits in Idaho and Washington state from 2016-2019.
