Educating the Community on Palliative Care with Trillium Institute

In this episode, we are joined by John Mulder, MD, FAAHPM, medical director of Trillium Institute and Holland Home Palliative Care. After beginning clinical services in 2007 with home-based and skilled nursing facility consultations, hospital consult services were added in 2008, and outpatient clinic services in 2011. Trillium Institute went on to launch in 2014, in order to develop a portfolio of educational resources for local universities, public events, professional schools, and health care institutions — and to implement navigation services for patients and families living with serious illness. In this discussion, Dr. Mulder explains how these programs have evolved over the years.
