In this week’s episode of In the Passenger Seat, we’re joined by Ellen Byrne, Director of Policy and Advocacy for the Illinois Hospice & Palliative Care Organization (ILHPCO), for a timely discussion on hospice and palliative care legislation that transcends politics.
Amid a divided political climate, Ellen highlights the issues that unite us all—ensuring dignity, choice, and quality of life at the end of life. We’ll explore current state and federal legislation impacting hospice and palliative care, why these initiatives matter, and how providers can engage in advocacy efforts that make a real difference.
Tune in for a grounded, hopeful conversation about the power of collaboration, shared values, and the collective voice of hospice professionals working together to improve care for patients and families across Illinois.
