We are excited to be able to share the following article provided by a member of the GRACE Fellows Ambassador Program, Dr. Arjun Gupta.

The article, originally written for JAMA Oncology, is an amazing and warm piece about Dr. Gupta's experience with his first patient as a first-year oncology fellow. To view the full article on the JAMA website, please follow this link, or scroll down to see the full text.

We are very much looking forward to collaborating with Dr. Gupta on supportive care programs over the next year.

Advance Directives

Article

Advance directives are a powerful way to take control of healthcare choices. These documents allow you to outline preferences for medical care and specify end-of-life wishes. These documents can also be a way to appoint loved ones who you would like to help with these decisions, such as a healthcare proxy (someone to make decisions on your behalf, if you cannot). As cancer treatments can involve aggressive treatments and/or complex medical management, having advance directives ensures that your desires regarding treatment options and end-of-life care are clearly communicated.
