SPECIAL SPEAKER SERIES – Dr. Samantha Winemaker

November 9, 2022 11:00 am - 12:30 pm

From Dr. Winemaker:

“I spent the first part of my career imagining how I could improve the illness journey for patients and families. I imagined a world where patients and families didn’t have to ask for palliative care to achieve a ‘good death’. I imagined a world where patients and families felt they had a roadmap for what to expect along their illness journey. I imagined a tidal wave of patients and families demanding a different type of care. I’d like you to imagine the same. “

More About Our Presenter:

Dr. Samantha Winemaker BSc., MD, CCFP(PC), FCFP

Dr. Winemaker is a graduate of McMaster University Medical School. She has completed residency training in Family Medicine, and fellowship training in Palliative Medicine. Her clinical work is predominately community based, caring for people in their home. She is an advocate for palliative care reform. She believes strongly that basic principles of palliative care should be the responsibility of all health care providers and integrated into care seamlessly, upstream in the patient’s illness journey.
