Everything End of Life.
This podcast is dedicated to talking to experts and others about all aspects of death and dying. You know, that thing we don't really want to talk about!
As a hospice carer and former psychiatric nurse as well as writer and former Theatre director, I invite guests to talk about their roles in and what to expect in the last four weeks of life. What happens to the person dying, what help is there, what to do before and after the event.
Many of the families we go in to see have one thing in common and that is that they don't know what to expect. I thought that a Podcast may help and then discovered so much to explore that is of interest to people such as alternative funerals, what do Hospices actually do, what role do religions play?
So join me for the first interview as we begin this Podcast with Clinical Nurse Specialist Becky Rix where we grasp the nettle and discuss what happens to us generally in those last four weeks.
Time to explore "Everything End of Life".
Everything End of Life.
Lee Jaschok and Freedom Funerals.
In this interview I chat to Lee Jaschok Director of Freedom Funerals about the whole perception of what makes a good Funeral and for who.
There are now many options available to us for that last celebration of our lives, we discuss those and look at a whole range of issues around that event.
What happens if someone doesn't have enough money for a Funeral? What are we allowed to do in that 30 minutes at the Chapel of Rest. Where can I be be buried and how.
This was a fascinating Interview that was made even more enjoyable by interviewing someone so personable.
It is in Lee's nature to put people at their ease in what may be a difficult time for them and that may be why he is such a well respected Funeral Director and just a great guy!
For those interested in what Palliative care looks like at home there is "The Last Kiss" (Not a Romance)
