Penn Nursing Podcast Special Edition: Advanced Care Planning in the Era of COVID-19

PHILADELPHIA (April 3, 2020) – The number of COVID-19 cases continues to grow. This week’s edition of Amplify Nursing features Elise Tarbi  and Brianna Morgan, who are both board-certified Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioners with advanced certifications in Hospice and Palliative care, as well as doctoral students at Penn Nursing. With demands on both hospitals and providers expanding, and resources predicted to become scarce, there has been heightened public discourse about rationing. Both will discuss how advance care planning has increased in importance in this landscape in order to support people with an increased risk of dying, as well as the healthcare providers and family members who may be facing these difficult decisions. Listen here or wherever you listen to podcasts. 

Amplify Nursing, was created and is hosted by Marion Leary, RN, MSN, Penn Nursing’s Director of Innovation, and Angelarosa DiDonato, DNP. It features nurses who are leading the way in nursing science, policy, and innovation.
