Stephen Price, RNAging Dilemmas Expressed in Song
Songs Playlist:
A "chance meeting" on 5th Avenue in New Youk City brought the filmmakers of Consider the Conversation and Steve together. They liked and used his music to open this thought provoking and amazing film about the American struggle with communication and preparation at the end-of-life.....an often taboo subject. Steve's songs may open your feelings and thoughts around mortality and help you to be better providers of care to elders. Stephen Price found his medical career in the US Navy sailing to Viet Nam in 1971. He has thrived in the health care field ever since. Video Recorded January 18, 2012
