The results seem to indicate that a strong sense of purpose to one’s life is associated with decreased mortality. Join us as we discuss the implications of this study and how to apply it in practice to improve your patients’ health and well-being as well as your own.  Guest: Susan Feeney, DNP, FNP Music Credit: Richard Onorato
