I'm also excited to attend Jon Stanger's Noon Conference today/Thursday in Building One, Conference Room One entitled "Beyond Right and Wrong: Six Parables for Medical Ethics."

Wednesday, July 14
5:30 - 7:30 PM
Building One Conference Room One(i.e. "noon conference room")
For this session, watch the movie Departures some time before the date. It won the Oscar for "best foreign film" in 2009, amongst many other awards. You should have no difficulty finding it at a movie rental store. It is also available from Netflix, either via mail or by "instant viewing" download. Jon will bring the DVD to our discussion in case we want to watch a scene, but please try to watch it ahead of time, as we won't have time to watch the whole film.
Please send Jon Stanger an RSVP. You are wanted - even if you haven't been to one of our discussions before, mark your calendar and send Jon a "yes" RSVP. I think you will enjoy watching this movie and the discussion should be interesting.
Next week on July 7th we will continue our summer break discussions at the Improvement Academy. In preparation for this discussion, please read Don Berwick's Yale School of Medicine Graduation Address given last week.
We will return to continuous improvement and advanced measurement at the Improvement Academy on July 14.
Be well,
Anna
