Originally an Emergency Department physician, Dr.Francesco Mulé is now moving from his role as an informal lead for palliative care to Head of Service for the Division of Palliative and Supportive Care.
Since 2011, Dr. Mulé has supported families as they navigate end-of-life care, pain and symptom management. The hospital says his interdisciplinary approach to the delivery of the palliative and end-of-life care in the hospital’s six-bed Palliative Care Unit will provide a reliable experience for patients and families.
The hospital says this new appointment will also pave the way for the creation this spring of a new NHH Palliative and Supportive Care Quality Practice Committee (QPC). The QPC will be co-chaired by Dr. Mulé and the clinical leader for Post-Acute Specialty Services.
