Wow, All I got to say if I'm dying in the ICU, I want Dr. Seheult to do the coordination of my care and discussion with my family! This has to be one of the best discussions I have seen. Thank you very much. I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

MICHELLE EVA MORHOLT (NP Student)
Excellent and thorough. Thank you for emphasis on cultural considerations, patient values, and encouraging Learners to explore ways to provide patients and loved ones specifics regarding the interventions and the side effects. I usually approach the conversation from a perceived values perspective but I will be incorporating the "4 pillars" concept next time. Thank you!
