MATT PERRY
and
STEVE PANTILAT, MD
with host TIM CARPENTER
MATT PERRY – Journalist, filmmaker, actor and storyteller Matt Perry has had a 6-year tenure at the California Health Report and created the “Aging With Dignity” news blog. He has interviewed some of the leading thinkers about some of the most critical issues of aging. Matt also created “The World Explained,” a live show he performs at conferences and seminars to break down the barriers between “us” and “them” as people age. Tim Carpenter talks to Matt Perry about trends in aging, empathy, and nothing less than explaining our world.
STEVE PANTILAT, MD – Steve’s most recent book is LIFE AFTER THE DIAGNOSIS: Expert Advice for Living Well with Serious Illness for Patients and Caregivers. It’s a guide for professionals, families and patients when faced with poor prognosis and the need to talk about chronic and end-of-life issues. Dr. Pantilat is a Professor of Clinical Medicine in the Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco; the Alan M. Kates and John M. Burnard Endowed Chair in Palliative Care; and the founding Director of the UCSF Palliative Care Program. Tim Carpenter talks to Dr. Steve Pantilat about what his 27 years of practice in palliative care have taught him about how we can live better, after the diagnosis.
Another way that residents get to enjoy fresh produce is by growing it themselves! At Metro Compton, the garden club meets once a month with Lillibeth, who is part of the Master Garden program. She volunteers 2 hours of her time to provide advice and answer any questions regarding the garden.
