Nicole Stassen and Charity Evans share their experience and expertise on delivering bad news and end of life discussions. Drs. Matthew Martin, David Morris, and Kevin Pei serve as moderators.Other referencesCommunicating Evidence for Participatory Decision Making - JAMA, May 19, 2004—Vol 291, No. 19Disclosing Harmful Medical Errors to Patients - n engl j med 356;26 www.nejm.org june 28, 2007
