Palliative Care vs Hospice Care

On this episode of Cancer Aware, we are talking with Maria Silveira who is a palliative care specialist at Michigan Medicine and the Ann Arbor Veterans Affairs. She has over 20 years of experience working in the hospital and in clinic, taking care of patients with serious illness, supporting them and their families through what is often the toughest time of their lives. She helps train the next generation of palliative care and hospice physicians and nurse practitioners, and she does research in symptom management.
