	Description:		Wondering what the real difference is between palliative care and hospice? Or when a PEG is worth all the trouble we know they cause? Caitlin Saxtein shares research and information on these topics and more. One study found that 78% of SLPs thought that PEGs were OK in advanced dementia (they're not), but only 11% of those same SLPs said they would want one for themself. We've got a ways to go on educating ourselves and our colleagues, but Caitlin will give you a head start.To share your thoughts: - Join the MedSLP Newbies Facebook group - Share this episode on Facebook or TwitterTo help out the show:- Leave a review on iTunes.
