“The QHC Podcast offers critical depth as an antidote to surface level sound bytes and offers humanity amidst a disheartening newscape. You’ll hear a refreshing alternative to overwhelm, with emphasis on how to think more clearly about difficult problems in health care. Listen and you might feel inspired too.”

“The case-based discussion model makes complex topics comprehensible. Dr. Rentmeester seems to carefully craft questions and explanations to make this an effective teaching resource. Listeners may benefit from some understanding of health sciences but I think even just a high degree of interest may be enough to appreciate the content.”

“The QHC podcast is an innovative tool for students and instructors in health care ethics. Scholars and clinicians probing this field desire not answers, since ethical issues can often be stubborn or even intractable. They wish rather to improve the quality of their questions, and to enable their students to do the same. By doing so, they hope to capture a deeper understanding of the context and the stakes attached to issues in health care ethics. Dr. Rentmeester offers a pathway in to these complex topics. She builds on her broad experience in the field to formulate questions, offering listeners tools with which to think.”
