During this time, she developed a keen appreciation for the challenging decisions that parents face as they struggle to balance the benefits and burdens of care while hoping for a good quality of life for their child. This work led to her passionate interests in both bioethics and promoting palliative care services for children and families. In addition, Ms. Giacomazza serves on various institutional, community, and state ethics boards and forums.
