Palliative Care - living well until the end

Losing a loved one can be a life-altering experience, and for Beth, a community palliative care specialist nurse, it was the catalyst that sparked her commitment to palliative care. After her own mother succumbed to cancer shortly after Beth became a nurse, she found solace and purpose in supporting others through their own end-of-life journeys. Beth invites us into her world, sharing moving stories from her transition from working in a hospice to becoming a community link nurse where she witnesses the profound peace that open conversations and thoughtful planning can bring to patients and their families during life's most challenging moments.https://www.fodens.co.uk/ https://www.fodens.co.uk/
