Rebecca Sudore Working to Implement Several Palliative Care Projects at ZSFG

Dr. Rebecca Sudore is working closely with Drs. Anne Kinderman and Heather Harris who recently received $2.5 million from the Stupski to implement several palliative care projects at Zuckerberg San Francisco Hospital, including Dr. Sudore’s PREPARE program.  The projects will enhance existing outpatient palliative care services; launch systems change and educational efforts to encourage advance care planning; initiate systematic screening of patients’ caregivers and develop a caregiver support curriculum; and enhance psychosocial needs assessment and community linkages.
