Synopsis "Living Well With a Serious Illness: A Guide to Palliative Care for Mind, Body, and Spirit (a Johns Hopkins Press Health Book) "

A practical guide for understanding how palliative care can improve quality of life for patients and their caregivers.Robin Bennett Kanarek was a registered nurse working with patients suffering from chronic medical conditions when her ten-year-old son was diagnosed with leukemia. As her son endured grueling treatments, Robin realized how often medical professionals overlook critical psychological, emotional, and spiritual support for people with life-threatening illnesses. Living Well with a Serious Illness is the culmination of decades of Robin's work to advance the field of palliative care.Although palliative care is often associated with hospice and end-of-life planning, Kanarek argues for a more expanded definition that incorporates palliative care earlier in patients' journeys. Living Well with a Serious Illness helps patients and their caregivers understand- what palliative care entails- how to access the support they need when going through a serious illness- what questions to ask medical professionals - how to navigate advanced care planning- definitions of common terminology used with end-of-life planning- the importance of spiritual care, coping strategies, and emotional support- how to become an advocate for palliative careThis book illuminates the importance of seeing patients as individuals who can benefit from care for their body, mind, and spirit--the core tenet of palliative care.
