During your afternoon break, between sessions, listen in as three seasoned hospice and palliative care professionals have a conversation about their personal experiences, what has sustained them throughout the years, and what they look forward to most as they continue on their hospice journey. The panel will discuss questions like:
- How do you stay motivated?
- What is the best piece of advice you ever received in your career?
- In addition, they will address questions from you.
