2. Studying methods of improving communication between patients living with serious illness, their families and their health care providers;
3. Evaluating models and systems of care for patients living with serious illness and their families.
*Research focused on dementia; children, adolescents, and young adults; and on addressing disparities in access and receipt of palliative care are high priority areas for NPCRC.
