May 10, 2022Field Notes from Pediatric Palliative Care: How I Learned to Love the Hard Conversations
Presented by Providence Center for Health Care Ethics:
Dr. Macauley is the director of the OHSU Doernbecher Bridges program and is a specialist in pediatric palliative care, which focuses on improving quality of life for kids facing life-limiting illness. He is one of only three hundred pediatricians in the United States board certified in palliative medicine. He values the chance to help children and their families work through some of the most difficult situations anyone can ever face. In his spare time, Dr. Macauley enjoys writing stories with his eldest daughter, doing aikido with his son, cooking with his center (never “middle”) daughter, and reading with his youngest. Throw in music lessons, concerts, plays, a couple of dogs, and a love of travel, and he and his wife got more than they bargained for (except when it comes to sleep).November 12, 2020Western University of Health Sciences Physical Therapy Program
