The Better Endings Project: How to support care of the dying and create compassionate communities
This course is primarily aimed at people who find themselves supporting & caring for people with serious illness & approaching end of life or those anticipating this situation.
What is the Better Endings Project?
Many people want to die at home, yet in New Zealand most die in institutions like hospitals and nursing homes. The Better Endings Project helps to educate the community about the basics of caring for dying people.
What does Nelson Tasman Hospice offer?
This simple course aims to create awareness and discussion on topics related to death and dying. The facilitators will aim to give practical tips on how you can provide comfort to someone who is dying, and what you can do to plan for your own and your family's future. It is an interactive course for up to 20 participants.
Participants will learn:
- What normal dying looks like
- How compassionate communities can improve care of dying
- Why end of life planning is important and what resources are available
