Dr. Shaw will develop programs for hospice, palliative care and end-of-life research at Huntington, an affiliate of Cedars-Sinai Cancer, according to the release shared with Becker’s.
“Cancer affects every aspect of a person’s life, so it’s important that we identify goals of care, encourage patients to express their preferences regarding medical treatments, and help to ensure that goals are honored,” Dr. Shaw said in the release. “Supportive care medicine allows us to treat the whole person, not just their diagnosis.”
