Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing's Ron Hickman hopes to offer a high-tech solution for a deeply human dilemma: what to do when you are responsible for health care decisions for a loved one. With the support of a $460,000 federal grant, he’s teamed with experts to create an electronic experience that allows people to explore the entire process before engaging in it for real
"These decisions are among the most difficult and emotional that people must make. With this virtual 'coach,' they can explore options on their own so actually advocating is less intimidating."
