THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED – LOOK FOR ANOTHER PRESENTATION LATER

Having a serious healthcare conversation with your doctor takes effort to ensure clear communications. Learn how to ask questions and be involved in treatment decisions by watching dramatic and comedy films depicting doctor-patient conversations. Also, watch examples of patient-family interactions for tips on improving family communications around serious diagnoses, particularly end-of-life situations and cancer diagnoses.

Osher Lifelong Learning at UNM Continuing Education hosts Gail Rubin presenting “Doctor, How Long Do I Have?” The class will take place on Tuesday, March 10, from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Film clips will include scenes from The Descendants, The End, Wit, The Shootist, 50/50, Patch Adams and Breaking Bad. Not to worry, it’s all legal! Gail Rubin has a license to use film clips in her talks.

The fee for the class is $20. Register for Course #19890 at Osher’s website.
