Responsibilities include providing inpatient and/or outpatient palliative care consultation, managing pain and other complex symptoms, conducting goals-of-care and advance care planning discussions, supporting patients and families during transitions of care, and collaborating with primary and specialty care teams. Opportunities may also be available to participate in education, quality improvement, program development, and teaching of medical students, residents, fellows, and other healthcare professionals.
