Register NowThis event takes place at Monmouth Medical Center Southern Campus 600 River Avenue in Lakewood, James and Sharon Maida Geriatrics Institute Conference Room. Palliative care is a type of medical care that aims to improve the quality of life for people with serious or life-threatening illnesses. It is often misunderstood. Palliative care can help patients and their families manage physical, emotional, and spiritual problems caused by the disease or its treatment. Please join Melanie Vernacchia, MSN, APN, OCN, Clinical Director of MMCSC’s James and Sharon Maida Geriatric Institute, and Claire Verruni RN, CHPN to discuss how palliative care can help you or a loved one cope with troublesome symptoms a disease may present you with. Light refreshments will be served.
