BlogTalkRadio Interview with Frances Shani Parker and Viki Kind (30 mins.)

Recently, I was interviewed by Vikki Kind, a bioethicist and medical educator who specializes in end-of-life issues. A hospice volunteer with Hospice of the Conejo in Thousand Oaks, California, Viki is also host of the BlogTalkRadio Show “Kind Ethics.” BlogTalkRadio is the social radio network that allows users to connect quickly and directly with their audiences. Using an ordinary telephone and computer, hosts can create free, live, call-in talk shows.

Viki Kind and I covered several topics during our 30-minute interview. They included the following:

1) Becoming Dead Right: A Hospice Volunteer in Urban Nursing Homes
2) Writing
3) Urban Nursing Home Issues
4) Cultural Diversity
5) Racial-Ethnic Healthcare Disparities
6) Healthcare Research
7) Service-Learning (Definition, Implementation)
8) School-Nursing Home Partnerships
9) Ageism
5) Semi- Sensory Deprivation
6) Honoring Patients’ Histories
