Caring for the final stages of life
Towards the end of life, many people begin to become unresponsive and silent. Many patients, though, are able to hear even at the point where they can no longer speak. The best thing is to speak to them as normal, share the day and time, advents, the holidays that are coming up, and also of other family members that may have called or stopped by.
Being able to provide care for someone in the last stages of their life is a privilege. Let’s take it seriously and do all that we can to make the last moments of their life the best moments of their life.
