Get Dying Right: Why Dignity in Care Matters with Dr. Harvey Chochinov

 Get Dying Right: Why Dignity in Care Matters with Dr. Harvey Chochinov 

Season 3, Episode 5 

 

How can we get dying right? In this episode, Distinguished Professor Dr. Harvey Chochinov helps answer this question by sharing stories and insights gained from decades of research in palliative care wards. 

 

Dr. Chochinov pioneered “dignity therapy” and now he shares his bigger idea on how dignity-centered health care can transform our experiences of end-of-life care and our views on medical assistance in dying (MAID), personhood, family, and much more.
