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.
Di's story.
Every four or five episodes I shall be giving people the opportunity to share their personal stories with us.
I think that we have as much to learn from or just share with others experiences as we do with the experts.
Experts are great as they describe the world that they experience everyday and are trained to respond to in a professional manner.
Those on the other side of the fence are us who can relate our experience of being assisted by professionals and what that can be like.
In this interview with Di Renders she shares with us what it was like and what support she got when faced with her husbands terminal diagnosis.
For those interested in what Palliative care looks like at home there is "The Last Kiss" (Not a Romance)
