The Hardest Conversations: Advocating for Quality of Life       

Jackie Stern Bellowe has had the pleasure of being a Family Physician for nearly 35 years and had the pleasure of taking care of individuals and families throughout the lifespan. 

Jackie has cared fof babies from first breath, to pregnant women, adolescents as well as adults through end of life. She has loved teaching patients as well as med students and residents, and has found some of the most satisfying work in advocating for patients at the end of life.

Her last chapter of practice involved taking care of home bound individuals, often as their hospice doctor and being at the bedside through the hardest and most gratifying conversations they and their families would be a part of .

Take some time with Jackie to reflect on the language of aging and the language of medicine to learn how to best understand and have a dialogue about end of life so that you can be prepared to advocate in an effective way for yourself and those you love.

There is no cost for the classes for members or friends of B’nai. Those age 12 and older are welcome to participate. Please register below.
