Palliative Care Beyond Societal Margins

Everyone needs access to an inclusive, equitable palliative approach to care. Palliative and end of life care is regarded in the western world as a necessary service to which everyone is entitled, and yet if we look closely, significant inequities exist in people living on the margins of societal norms, such as those who are homeless and without support who do not have equal access to such care. In this episode of Radical Nurse Talk we speak with Dr. Kelli Stajduhar, a Professor in the School of Nursing and Institute on Aging & Lifelong Health at the University of Victoria and Research Chair in Palliative Approaches to Care in Aging and Community Health. Kelli has led the call for change for people who are precariously housed and without resources to access the compassionate end of life care they require.
