Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving: Whatcom Reads Panel Discussion

Jonathan Evison will join a panel discussion, The Art of Caregiving, at BTC’s Settlemyer Hall in a collaboration between the Palliative Care Institute, Bellingham Technical College, and Whatcom READS.  

Evison is the author of The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving, which portrays interactions between an in-home caregiver and a young man in the advanced stages of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. 

This book, although fictionalized, raises many of the issues about providing palliative care, including questions of independence and the balance between living a ‘full’ life and a ‘safe’ life. 

Panel members will include Evison, Bonnie Blachly from WWU’s RN-BSN Nursing Program, and a faculty member from BTC’s nursing program.
