Being Mortal, What Are Our Treatment Wishes?

Tuesday, April 28, 2026 | 1:00pm - 2:00pm

Mel Chudnof, PhD

In his book, Being Mortal, Dr. Atul Gawande discusses the struggles of his profession and those of his patients with life-threatening illnesses. Patients often seek, or are given, treatments that help them live the longest, but not always the best, lives. This program will use Gawande’s findings to discuss aging, illness, death and quality of life. Note: Attendees may benefit from reading Being Mortal, prior to this presentation.
