We're proud to celebrate #DyingMatters Week at our hospital, promoting open conversations about death, dying, and bereavement. Let's break the silence and support each other. #DyingMatters #EndOfLifeCare 💕🌹
Delighted that our ‘What matters most?’ Film is being screened at the #SunsetFilmFestival in LA. Sadly I can’t be there but it is wonderful that it is reaching such a wide range of audiences. It is also fitting that it coincides with #DyingMattersWeek .
To mark #DyingMattersWeek we turn our focus to two of our palliative care nurses Craig and Tracey.
In this video they talk about their role when caring for our most vulnerable patients and how they communicate with them and their families.
