Learn about the largest funded end-of-life community-based partnership of its kind in the United States, the Arizona End of Life Care Partnership (EOLCP), which was anchored at United Way of Tucson and Southern Arizona. We will use the EOLCP as a case study to explore how community-based organizations can transform how deathcare is delivered at a regional level. Sarah Ascher, who served as the partnership vice president, worked to enhance the way those living in the community fundamentally changed how they talked about death.
A core part of the partnership’s work was educating community members about end-of-life, including cultural practices, traditions, and services that exist to help everyone in Tucson and Southern Arizona live well and die well. This led to connections between hospices, regional funeral consumers alliance, home-sharing organizations, an LGBTQI2S+ senior organization, African American health groups, INELDA, community healthcare, and many other stakeholders.
The partnership regularly brought together the many organizations to focus on transforming care throughout Tucson and Southern Arizona. The partnership distributed over 36,000 advance directives in our community and provided education and outreach to more than 33,000 individuals and professionals across Southern Arizona. Discover how thinking at a regional level can promote the transformation of deathcare systems in our communities.
INELDA’s director of partnerships and communications, Loren Talbot invites you to consider what a regional solution to gaps in a deathcare system can include. Together we will glean shared lessons that can be applied to our own communities.
Guest Speaker Bio:
Sarah Super Ascher, M.S., is the founder of Patient Experience Consulting, LLC, where she merges the worlds of healthcare and community to achieve sustainable systems change through wise strategy, evidence-based initiatives, shared outcomes, and trusted connections.
She served as the vice president for the Arizona End of Life Care Partnership (EOLCP) anchored at United Way of Tucson and Southern Arizona (UWTSA), leading the core infrastructure team for the Partnership as a whole for over six years.
Before starting in her current role, Sarah worked in various leadership roles in hospitals over the course of 30-plus years, including as director of patient experience at three distinct academic medical centers. She has served on multiple community non-profit organizations boards of directors, volunteering for the love of her community.
Sarah’s personal passion for end-of-life care arose from three transformative life events: the death of her 51-year-old mother at home when she was 15 years old; the death of her brother by suicide, taken off life support after one week in a hospital ICU; and the death of her father from dementia, a parent for whom she served as caregiver and legal guardian for 6 years in Tucson until his death in 2007.
