"Defining Hope" Screening

The George Washington University School of Nursing's Center for Health Policy and Media Engagement and Center for Aging, Health and Humanities are proud to host a special screening of 'Defining Hope.'

'Defining Hope' is a story about people weighing what matters most at the most fragile junctures in life and the nurses who guide them. It's a documentary that follows patients with life-threatening illnesses as they make choices about how they want to live, how much medical technology they can accept, what they hope for and how that hope evolves when life is threatened. It is optimistic and reminds us that we have choices in how we die.

Following the screening, there will be a panel discussion. Questions can be directed to nursingpolicy@gwu.edu

Nurses will receive 1.25 free contact hours for watching the film and completing the evaluation thanks to the generous support of Walden University.
