| Summary |
The essence of good Palliative Care is attention to detail. Therefore, it is essential that specific actions need to be taken to establish a safe and comfortable arena in which meaningful dialogue can take place. "If the nurse stands with her foot pointed towards the door, then asks the patient if he wants to talk, she will never be given the honor hearing what is in his heart." In this moving program, Joy Ufema, R.N., M.S., discusses the importance of being fully present in our conversations with the terminally ill. Conversations with two clients help illustrate Joy's points in a friendly and insightful manner. Joy Ufema, R.N., M.S., is a Clinical Specialist in Death and Dying and an internationally recognized lecturer on Palliative Care. She currently is Clinical Specialist in Thanatology at Upper Chesapeake Medical Center/Harford Memorial Hospital. "offers sound, comforting advice for home caregivers, family and others dealing with terminally ill persons" ̃ Booklist Winner of the Communicator Crystal Award of Distinction! |
