Welcome to the "Life and Loss" podcast, brought to you by Forest Holme Hospice in Poole, Dorset. In this episode, Liz, an End-of-Life Care Educator based at Forest Holme Hospice, discusses what should be included in an End-of-Life Care plan and why they are so important to patients, and their loved ones.
She explains some common misconceptions about end-of-life care and how proactive end-of-life care planning can empower patients and their families to make informed decisions about their care preferences, while helping to alleviate uncertainty and reduce stress for both patients.
