Screening of "Extremis" with Dr. Jessica Nutik Zitter

  • Pierson Hall 5000 Holmes Street Kansas City, MO, 64110 United States (map)

Free & Open to the Public

There is a public health crisis that touches all of us: people dying badly. Without knowing our options, we become subject to what Dr. Jessica Nutik-Zitter calls the “end-of-life conveyor belt”; when mechanization and protocol override personal preference and collaborative decision-making.

Join Dr. Zitter as she explores the question; “What do we really want from ourselves, our loved ones and those entrusted with our care when it comes to death?”

Free Parking on Levels 5 & 6 of the Cherry Street parking structure.

Books are available for sale at this event.

This event is supported by the Kansas City Society of Palliative Medicine.
