Other Notes:
More than 70% of us wants to die at home, surrounded by familiar possessions, and within the loving embrace of family and loved ones. I would term this as a ‘good’ death.
Sadly, most die in a hospital or nursing home. While the hospice movement goes some way towards providing a caring environment for a good death, hospitals and nursing homes have ended up medicalising and sterilising death to such an extent that dying appears to have become another protracted stage of living.
This comprehensive, challenging and wide-ranging course is aimed at community nursing staff, medical staff, palliative care staff, social prescribers, link workers and anyone who wants to learn more about the ingredients for working compassionately and effectively with the dying (and their families).
From creating an appropriate environment and the elements of sensitive care of the dying, from understanding Anticipatory Grief to the importance of post-death rituals, and much more.
