About the blog

Journal cover

We are pleased to invite you to participate in a blog produced by Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., in collaboration with Stanford University about the innovative content in the Journal of Palliative Medicine .

With this blog, our goal is to inform you in a timely fashion about what’s new and let you choose how you want to receive the information as well as interact with it. Each week we will post a piece about one of the papers in the Journal of Palliative Medicine , giving you the thoughts and opinions of the JPM Social Media Senior Associate Editor, the JPM Social Media Expert Panelists about why it was important to publish, its clinical significance, and how it furthers the field of palliative care practice and research. We plan to make the content interesting, provocative and hope that it will stimulate your thinking and encourage you to participate in the discussion. The idea is to make it easy for you to give us your views on a particular topic and make the whole conversation more accessible to multi-disciplinary palliative care practitioners, educators and researchers.
The blog gives us a new way to distribute educational and research information on the social web and most importantly allows us an opportunity to connect with you on an ongoing basis. Please do visit us on facebook as well as Twitter (our Twitter handle is @PalliativeMed_J )

Your opinion is important to us. We do hope that you will participate actively by commenting on posts, sending us your ideas and feedback. We’d like this to be an open inter-disciplinary forum, complementary to the core content of JPM. We aim to engage you in a new experience beyond the journal page in a more interactive global community engaged in advancing the field of pallaitive care.

Marketing
has also shifted from a one-way broadcast to a multi-point conversation. In the past, communications were “broadcast” exclusively
through mass marketing channels like radio, TV and newspapers. Business was conducted with the people you
would meet and shake hands with in passing.

Great Idea! Thanks for making all of this information available!

Folk Music?
As an RN and musician I decided to write and record music rather than give another lecture about the palliative and hospice patients. Music is a different way to experience the universal dilemmas we face with our patients and may serve as an educational tool.
