Transforming advanced care for patients is really great. I am a caregiver, I do want to register, however, I have something to do that day. And I really want to learn something from Vicki Jackson, MD, who will attend this conference. So if it is possible, will someone share the video or article on this conference. That will be highly appreciated. Hope this conference successful.
We’re happy to report that we will share the video of the conference on the PFC website shortly after the event. Subscribe to our newsletter (https://visitor.r20.constantcontact.com/d.jsp?llr=jb84h4cab&p=oi&m=1102707682345&sit=dp6jyepeb) for an announcement once the video is available!
