Dr. Michael Kearney, VNA Health’s Palliative Care associate medical director, has been at the forefront of our local Palliative Care movement in Santa Barbara County.
“Palliative Care is focused on what the patient’s needs are,” shares Dr. Kearney. “Yes, the diagnosis or prognosis is important, but that is not our focus. It is about helping the patient feel better, to manage their physical and non-physical symptoms. If they feel well physically, psychologically and spiritually, then their quality of life improves.”
Dr. Kearney’s first experience with palliative care and hospice care was as a medical student in the 1970s.

Darth Algar was my dear sweet husband. He passed away on April 25th after a long illness. He enjoyed Fluther very much (even if he was an ass sometimes, which he would thoroughly admit). I will miss him with my entire being. He was an amazing human.

Oh no @anniereborn! I’m so very sorry for your loss as well as the collective’s loss.
I very much enjoyed Darth’s answers and questions here. He made me laugh far more than he made me roll my eyes.
