Embracing the End of Life - Revised Edition

Our lives include many adventures, detours and joys! We spend a lot of time planning for the various stages of life, and yet we often leave questions around the end-of-life phase unexplored. Michelle O’Rourke and Eugene Dufour hope to change that. In this revised and updated edition of Embracing the End of Life, they offer practical tools and thoughtful guidance for health care professionals, family members and other caregivers. Drawing on inspiring true stories and their professional expertise, they delve into key areas including caring well, spiritual care, loss, suffering, dying well, Medical Assistance in Dying, and grief. Reflection questions invite readers to examine their beliefs around death and dying to better support those in their care.Michelle O'Rourke, Eugene Dufour
