Advance Directives are a conversation frequently dreaded by both
patients and providers. Yet avoiding them can result in even more
painful situations down the line. That is why Karen Kopan has
launched Intensive Karen to help educate
people on the importance of Advance Directives.
Karen Kopan is a critical care nurse practitioner with over 30
years of Intensive Care nursing experience. Throughout her career,
she has worked alongside patients, their families, friends and
hospital staff. Her mission is to educate others about Advance
Directives. She is committed to changing the way we talk about life
and death, in the hospital and in our everyday lives.
In the podcast, we discuss:
- Patient-centered care
- Advocating for yourself within the health
system
- Advance Directives
