Episode Fifty: Exit Strategies

The Hospice Nursing Podcast

In this episode I answer a listener email question regarding death visits.

No two death visits are alike, so in this episode I try to cover some of the basics.

I cover some of the following topics.

1. Call the funeral home as quickly as possible
2. It’s not about you
3. Don’t always be in a hurry to interject yourself
4. Be sensitive to other cultures
5. To stay or not to stay
6. Post mortem care
7. Clothig

Then I finish the episode telling several stories from my own experiences and some of the things I did well, and some of the things I didn’t do so well.
